Tue Nov 28 16:22:31 MST 2023

Dear Colleagues:

I am writing to highlight a few opportunities that have arrived at my inbox recently. I hope that you can take advantage of at least one of them.

NIH-Funded UA Couples Research Study - Participate Now!

This NIH-funded research study<https://news.arizona.edu/story/uarizona-psychologists-receive-29m-study-neural-mechanisms-emotions-couples> examines the role of close relationships in shaping mental health outcomes. The UA Couples Research Study is seeking participants who are 18-55 years of age, live together, and who are in a romantic relationship. Both members of the couple would participate in our neuroimaging study. In many ways, members of the UA community (including staff) are ideal participants.

For more information: visit https://psychology.arizona.edu/couples-research-study or email couplesresearch at email.arizona.edu<mailto:couplesresearch at email.arizona.edu> .

Future Leaders for Food and Agriculture (FFAR Fellows) - Due February 22 or April 15, 2024 depending on fellowship type

The consensus among employers is that U.S. universities could better prepare a career-ready STEM workforce by breaking down disciplinary silos and increasing the focus on professional development and "soft-skills." The FFAR Fellows program guides cohorts of 25 graduate students through a 3-year program of professional development and mentorship. By co-sponsoring a PhD student for the 3-year fellowship, leaders in industry and non-governmental organizations build connections to students and university research programs as they mentor a developing researcher. Two fellowship categories are available: (1) stipend + professional development, and (2) professional development only fellowship.

Cheers,

Zelieann
