It’s the last week of Graduate Student Appreciation Month, so we are concluding the month by highlighting PhD in Biomedical Sciences student Bryce Rowan! Find out how the resources at Mount Sinai are instrumental in helping him reach his goals. Read more: https://mshs.co/3UfPSUY #GraduateStudentAppreciationMonth

Read about our students majoring in #Biology, #Biochemistry, #Chemistry #Sociology, and more, and the benefits they receive from mentored research!

"Congratulations to Dr. Neha Sharma and supervisor Dr. Rajesh Kumar on successfully defending your PhD Viva! Your hard work, perseverance, and dedication have paid off, and this achievement marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter. Wishing you continued success in all your future endeavors! #PhDAchievement #VivaSuccess #HardWorkPaysOff" #sceps#physicalscience#chemicalengineering#lpu#lpuuniversity#LPUDiaries

For many, tonight is going to be a nervous, stressful sleep (if you are lucky enough to manage). Whilst academic results are important, they are far from everything. 14 years ago, I did not get the grades I needed to study medicine, missing out by one mark in Biology. Despite this I did get into my chosen university, studying Biomedical Science instead. Many years of personal and academic challenges later, I received my Doctorate (just in Biomedical Science), multiple first author publications and now I am working at the same university, ready to receive applications for Clearing 2024. For those who are awaiting their results, do not be afraid of having to pivot directions. Life never works out exactly as planned but, when you look back, it will appear like you did it all on purpose. Best of luck for everyone involved, and for those of you who will be joining us in clearing, please know that St George's, University of London is ready for you! #clearing, #resultsday, #motivation, #education, #medicine, #biomedical,

Application window closing! Final call for applications to a funded #PhD "exploring the relationship between #VitiminD and #suicidalbehaviour".

Major institutions in the Downtown BioMedical District continue to support growth and innovation through recent patent activity. In 2023, researchers secured 11 patents between the LSU and Tulane University's Downtown campuses. Six patents were awarded toLSU Health Sciences Center New Orleans last year, with the larger LSU system ranking among the top institutions to receive utility patents in the United States. On Tulane University's Downtown Campus, researchers pulled in five patents in 2023, reflecting the university’s 70% increase in biomedical and academic research over the past six years. Tulane also received many more patents from its Uptown campus. With two major institutions and a third on the way—the Xavier-Ochsner College of Medicine—Downtown is poised for a bright future in the biomedical field.

🎓✨Faculty of Small Liberal Arts Colleges Across All Disciplines are uniquely positioned to make a profound impact on the futures of our graduate students, providing them with the guidance and opportunities to excel in their chosen fields. Here’s how we can make a difference: Broaden Awareness: Actively seek out and share information about grants and awards accessible to graduates from various disciplines, not just those traditionally associated with our fields of expertise. Mentorship Matters: Offer personalized mentorship to students, guiding them through the application process, from proposal writing to presentation skills. Cross-Disciplinary Support: Collaborate with colleagues from different departments to create a supportive ecosystem for all students, ensuring they have the resources and encouragement needed to pursue such opportunities. By engaging intentionally with our students, we emphasize the value of interdisciplinary research and our vital role in our student's academic and professional journeys and in nurturing the next generation of scholars. One opportunity for encouraging young scholars to share their research is the Eppendorf & Science Prize for Neurobiology, which celebrates remarkable achievements in neuroscience by young researchers. College educators and mentors can foster a culture of research excellence and ambition. By encouraging and supporting our students to apply for such grants, we open doors to unparalleled opportunities for professional growth and recognition in their fields.
