Engaging New Communities, Enhancing Research & Training

BID Workshop: July 8 – 13, 2024
Application Dates: February 1 – April 15,��2024

Building on the long-standing convening power of С����Ƶ, BID (Building Innovation through Diversity) is a new opportunity for postdoctoral fellows or early career faculty from groups traditionally underrepresented in STEM, as well as faculty at Minority Serving Institutions.

The aim of BID is to extend the С����Ƶ experience to new communities of scientists using engagement with our��Advanced Research Training Courses��(ARTC) as a launchpad. Over the course of five days participants will have an in-depth look at the С����Ƶ’s unparalleled resources, potential to foster new and exciting collaborations, and comprehensive overview of the ARTC faculty and opportunities within.

The 2024 BID workshop is focused on Developmental and Microbiology and is a fully funded 5-day program, engaging early career scientists in ARTC faculty opportunities at the С����Ƶ in Woods Hole, MA.
