LAB LEADERSHIP WORKSHOP
ASPB held a comprehensive laboratory leadership workshop prior to the
Plant Biology & Botany 2007 Annual Meeting. The workshop, which is modeled
after similar workshops convened by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and
the Burroughs Wellcome Fund, focused on the development of key scientific
lab management and leadership skills that are required for success at universities
and colleges large and small. As such, it was targeted to late-stage postdocs
(i.e., those actively seeking academic positions) and junior faculty.
