-
Sixth Annual Meeting, April 25-27th, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA
-
Analysis and reporting of the Sigma Xi Postdoc Survey data to ensure that postdoctoral polices and practices are based on the best evidence available.
-
Action in support of policy changes within NIH, NSF and other funding agencies to promote professional development, successful career transitions, mentoring and improved training conditions for postdoctoral scholars.
-
Outreach to institutions, encouraging implementation of the NPA’s recommended practices and providing support of newly forming postdoc associations and offices.
-
Developing new benefits and services for members of the NPA.
