The Whole Scientist

About

Our signature The Whole Scientist™ course is available to Ph.D. students and postdoctoral scientists from U.S. universities and research institutions. Individuals seeking careers as researchers – in academia, industry, biotech, or government – in addition to those with scientific ambitions away from the bench will gain valuable training in areas such as leadership, management, communication, and mentoring. This residential program, held on the JAX campus in Farmington, Connecticut consists of a series of seminars and workshops led by invited experts to guide trainees in developing the skills needed to advance to the next stage of their careers. Many sessions can be applied to RCR training obligations. Participants also benefit from the development of supportive and collegial peer relationships that extend well beyond the duration of the course. Generous travel awards are available to offset costs for participants traveling to the region. 

This program is supported through NIH grant R25GM113979.
