Division of Scientific Education
The division’s overarching objective is to provide a framework of outreach activities that:
- train the next generation of scientists
- foster multidisciplinary scientific enrichment and collaboration
- attract new investigators with relevant complementary expertise
- provide a conduit between researchers and the lay community.
To achieve these programmatic objectives, we cater to four unique groups: faculty, postdoctoral fellows, students, and the lay community.
Below we describe the activities provided for each of these groups.
