Speaker: Falk Hassler UNC at Chapel Hill & University of Pennsylvania Date : Tuesday, January 9, 2018 Time : 3:30pm-4:30pm

Your PhD taught you how to practice science; your postdoc should be used to develop the skills you need to successfully manage a research plan and a team . What are these important skills? Does the skill set depend on an academic system? This workshop will address these and many other crucial-to-your postdoc questions.
