We have many permit colors and the attached map provides detail for all
campus parkers based on their permit color. Below, I’ve tried to narrow
the focus to just graduate students, so when looking at the attached map,
the lot names they should concentrate on include Lot H, Lot J, Dewey Lot
and Ledyard Lot.

* DCAL's Learning Community for Future Faculty - planning meeting *
In order to cultivate a community focused on teaching and learning
amongst graduate students and postdocs, DCAL has established a Learning
Community for Future Faculty (LCFF). The focus of this group is to share
the rewards and challenges of college teaching, while digging a bit
deeper into best practices and techniques for teaching. The LCFF usually
meets monthly on the 2nd Monday of the month. In September we are
meeting later to avoid conflicting events and we'll discuss topics and
ask for volunteers to facilitate. Please come join in the planning!

ReD Associates: Putting the humanities and social sciences to work in
the “real” world
Why do so many chronically ill people refuse to take the medicine they
need?
How do you sell green solutions to people who don't care about pollution?
How is technology changing how people work, relax or play?
These are some of the questions we have answered for our clients– and we’d
like your help.
ReD Associates is a strategy consultancy based in NYC and Copenhagen. We
are experts at delivering insights into human behavior, and actionable
strategies for how companies can turn those insights into business
opportunities. Our international staff of anthropologists, sociologists,
philosophers, political scientists, and designers employs approaches
from social science and the humanities to study human behavior and
everyday life.
We actively recruit graduate students with social sciences and
humanities training to make sense of people and everyday life to solve
some of today’s toughest problems. We take your theoretical frameworks,
methodological training and critical thinking skills outside of the
classroom and into the real world. Come learn about what we do, who we
are—and why we want you.
ABOUT THE SPEAKER

* Celebration of Biomedical Research at Dartmouth (CBRaD) poster session
*
We are pleased to invite you to the second annual Celebration of
Biomedical Research at Dartmouth (CBRaD) poster session on Thursday,
October 20th from 5-8 PM at the Life Sciences Center (second floor).
Our goal in coordinating this poster session is to highlight research in
all the science graduate programs under the School of Graduate and
Advanced Studies, and biomedical-related research labs throughout
Dartmouth. All are welcome to attend and/or present!
We hope to further engender a sense of community throughout the faculty,
postdocs and graduate students who do research here, as well as foster
potential collaborations. As many graduate students will be joining us
this fall, this is also an opportunity to demonstrate the strength and
diversity of biomedical research at Dartmouth, particularly for students
seeking rotations and thesis labs. Poster presenters will be given 5
minutes to deliver their poster to judges, and top posters will be
awarded either an iPad, $100 gift card to Simon Pearce, and $25 gift
card to Starbucks. If poster presenters do not want their poster to be
judged, then they will be entered into a raffle where they can win other
awesome prizes. Food and beverages (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic)
will be provided.
As the date for CBRaD is fast approaching, we would encourage all
graduate students, postdocs and faculty interested in presenting their
own research or their lab’s research to sign up on the Google
spreadsheet linked directly below. We also have a spreadsheet for
attendees below that. Please sign up by October 12th as we will need a
final headcount for posters, food, and beverages.
Poster session sign up:

* Write Winning Grant Proposals *
Dartmouth GrantGPS invites you to attend the following seminar:
Write Winning NIH Grant Proposals
Note: this seminar will be particularly helpful for graduate students
preparing for qualifying exams. The presenter will spend some time
focusing on writing an NIH Specific Aims page and research strategy.
However, it will also cover all aspects of an NIH R01 application, and
should be beneficial for graduate students at any stage.
Date: Thursday, December 1, 2016
Time: 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM (Lunch and coffee breaks provided)
Where: Filene Auditorium, Moore Hall, Dartmouth College campus, Hanover
Presenter: John Robertson, PhD (from Grant Writers’ Seminars &
Workshops)
This comprehensive, all-day presentation addresses both practical and
conceptual aspects of writing NIH research grant and fellowship
applications. It is appropriate for faculty members, postdoctoral
researchers, and graduate students. Dr. Robertson will spend time
focusing on writing a Specific Aims page, along with the research
strategy. An emphasis is given to doing the "extra" things that can make
the difference between success and failure. For more information about
Grant Writers’ Seminars and Workshops, visit: http://www.grantcentral.com
A tentative agenda is attached.
All participants will receive an extensive handout, as well as a copy of
“The Grant Application Writer’s Workbook” (NIH version).
To register please send an email to Cindy Stewart ([log in to unmask]),
indicating your primary department and title.
Registration deadline: November 10, 2016
