Didactic and small group session will focus on preparing for NIH grants, other funding opportunities, critical insights on work/life balance, mentor-mentee relationships, and academic career development. Attendees will also have the opportunity to network with prior AAN Foundation/Brain Foundation recipients to learn about science and successful research paths. |
| Completion Message: | Participants should gain essential information about core components of a successful career development award as well as important insights on other aspects of academic neurology, including work/life balance, mentor-mentee relationships, funding opportunities and overall academic career development.
