Significant Impact: from K Award to Your First Big R01

Investing in Your Research Career (And Yourself)


Listen Later

Aside from covering the absolute necessities to get their labs set up, plenty of early career faculty see their startup funds as a safety net to get them through rough patches when they don’t have the grant funding they need.
 
But what if you thought about startup funds differently? What if you thought about them as an investment in getting you started—more specifically, as an investment in your ability to secure grant funding? 

Let’s talk about why investing in your research career (and yourself) can give you a massive, unbeatable ROI—and why most early career researchers don’t see it that way.

Tune in to this episode to learn:

Learn why this stage of your career is where you want to go all in and bet on yourself!
