[Faculty] Quarto Lab Handbook Training, CASA-Bio Workshops, and Sloan Research Fellowships

[Craig, Zelieann R - (zelieann)]

Dear Colleagues:

I am writing to highlight a few research and innovation opportunities that I have become aware of recently. I hope that you can take advantage of at least one of them.

Workshop: Creating a Lab Handbook with Quarto - Wed Aug 28th, 2024
A lab handbook is a living document that outlines the group's philosophy, policies, expectations and "institutional knowledge". In this workshop, you'll create your own searchable lab group handbook/wiki with Quarto. You'll learn the basics of GitHub, markdown, and Quarto, and be guided through customizing a template book to make it your own. This workshop is open to anyone, but will be especially useful for current PIs or graduate students or postdocs planning on running their own group in the future.

Workshop Series: Catalyzing Across Sectors to Advance the Bioeconomy (CASA-Bio) - series begin early September 2024
CASA-Bio is a collaborative, facilitated activity involving stakeholders<https://www.casa-bio.net/participating-stakeholders> from federal funding agencies, industries, non-profits, and the public sector research community. The overall goal is to give life to the vision of the Bioeconomy EO by seeking synergy through collaboration in areas of mutual interest. CASA-Bio is offering Advancement Workshops in Personalized Health and Medicine for Vaccine and Biologics Delivery, Accelerated Breeding for All Economically Important Crops and Animals, Creating Value from Waste Carbon for a Circular Bioeconomy, Enabling Resilient Biobased Supply Chains, Food Protein Diversification, and Strategies to Improve Carbon and Energy Efficiency of Biomanufacturing.

Funding: Sloan Research Fellowships For Early-Career Scientists - due Sept 15th, 2024
These are two-year $75,000 fellowships awarded annually to early-career researchers whose creativity, innovation, and research accomplishments make them stand out as the next generation of leaders. Candidates must be nominated by their unit head or other senior researcher and no more than three candidates may be nominated from any one department. If you plan to apply, contact your assigned Research Administrator (RA) as soon as possible. Use this link to find your assigned RA https://research.cales.arizona.edu/pre-award-process
