The Kavli Institute for Brain and Mind (KIBM) hosts meetings for early career researchers to help foster their research community at UCSD. Our goal is to bring early career researchers (non-faculty) together so they can meet, network and share research. This event is open only to EARLY CAREER RESEARCHERS (grad student/ postdoc/ project scientist).
This luncheon consists of a few short, informal talks by early career researchers, followed by a networking social hour. Lunch will be provided by KIBM.
Event Chairs: Kiana Miyamoto and Shams Al-Azzam
Christian Cazares, Neurosciences Ph.D. student: Understanding the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Application
Intro: The NSF-GRFP recognizes and supports graduate students in STEM or in STEM education with three years of financial support throughout their graduate years. However, writing a competitive application requires an understanding of their review criteria: Broader Impacts and Intellectual Merit. Join us for a discussion on how to address these and other aspects of the application that could give you a competitive edge as an undergraduate, post-baccalaureate, or a first-year graduate student.
