This event is recommended for: Graduate Students; Postdocs/Fellows.

The process of getting grants funded requires scientists to decide what to fund, organize peers to review submitted grants, interact with grantees, and analyze if the money was spent well. We have gathered together panelists from within the NIH, from other governmental agencies, and from the private sector to share how they transitioned from the lab to their current positions and what their day-to-day responsibilities include.
