NPA SmartSkills Workshop: Understanding Research Development Careers (Virtual) — Presented by National Postdoctoral Association

About

Two roads diverged after a postdoc, and we took the one non-traditionally traveled. Research Development (RD) is a non-traditional career path. RD professionals (RDP) make team science happen by guiding researchers and teams through proposal development, team science, and strategic planning for research innovation and excellence. Postdoctoral training confers effective and highly transferrable skills that make postdocs valuable as RDP candidates.
