The National Postdoctoral Association (NPA) invites the Penn community to the next SmartSkills session. This presentation on demystifying the NIH grants process is sponsored by NPA member Seattle Children’s Research Institute.

This workshop will provide information and tools to successfully navigate the NIH grants process, aiming to empower participants with knowledge and confidence in applying for NIH funding.
