I'm happy to announce that we have released our fall faculty seminars and they are open for registration.

AMC: NIH K Awardees Panel
September 12, 2018
12:00 – 2:00
Location: Education 2 North, Rm 1103
Faculty Experts: Sarah Borengasser, Assistant Professor, School of Medicine; Heather Coates, Assistant Professor, College of Nursing; & Danielle Soranno, Assistant Professor, School of Medicine

The mentored NIH Research Career Development Award or K Award is unique among NIH grants. Successful candidates not only have to propose an excellent research plan but also have to show that they need mentoring and that they have the potential to be independent investigators. Join us to better understand the NIH K Awards and hear from recent awardees of the K01, K99, and K08.

Denver: Academic v. Grant Writing
September 27, 2018
12:00 – 2:00 pm
Location: CU Building, Rm 3301
Faculty Expert: Bud Talbot, Assistant Professor, Science Education and Laurel Hartley, Associate Professor, Biology

Research faculty need to write a lot, writing articles and grant proposals in particular. But, these are very different types of writing. The academic writing that goes into articles is often oriented toward other experts in the field. Proposal writing however requires the PI to pitch their idea and convince readers to invest in their project. In this seminar we will look at the difference between these types of writing, looking particularly at how you can switch gears from academic writing to grant writing. Additionally, we will learn from our faculty experts how to write in these different capacities collaboratively.

AMC: Scientific & Grant Writing Symposium
October 16, 2018
9:30 am – 1:30 pm
Location: Education 2 South, Rm 1102
Faculty Guest Experts: Spero Manson, Associate Dean for Research, Colorado School of Public Health; Jennifer Kemp, Director, Research Office, Department of Medicine; Garth Sundem, Science Writer, Cancer Center; and Naomi Nishi, Associate Director of ORDE

Science writing and grant writing are not usually considered synonymous with clear and compelling writing. This is usually because science and grant writing require engaging complex, and highly technical subject matter. But, it can be done. Join us for this symposium and hear from several professional science/grant writers on how to improve your craft.

Denver: New Faculty Symposium
October 24, 2018
12:00 – 2:00 pm
Location: Student Commons, Rm 1401
Faculty Expert: Bob Damrauer, Associate Vice Chancellor, Office of Research Services

Early Career Investigators often feel a bit isolated from the research community on a new campus. This new faculty symposium is an opportunity to familiarize yourself with the CU Denver research community and introduce yourself and your work. You also will learn more about all of the research processes and resources available to you.

AMC: Know Your Agency: American Diabetes Association
November 6, 2018
12:00 – 1:30
Location: Education 2 North, Rm 1107
Faculty Expert: Jane Reusch, Professor, School of Medicine

In the Know Your Agency Lunches, we feature a specific agency and ask either an investigator funded by the agency or an agency insider to give an overview of the agency and offer some of the nuances that might not be readily available on the website or program announcement. These lunches also offer an opportunity for investigators interested in applying to the agency the chance to ask questions of someone more experienced with the agency.
