Thursday May 23, 2024Clarity in academic writing is good; concision is good; logical organization is good. But none of these matter if your writing is not seen by readers to be valuable to them. Commonly it’s thought that value is a matter not of writing but of content; make the writing clear and logical, and value will take care of itself. In fact, successful academic texts—including successful grant applications—rely on a host of writing techniques specific to value, and not just communicating value, but also creating it.
In the morning session (9 am to noon), Dr. McEnerney will lead workshop attendees through essential techniques for creating value. In three afternoon sessions of 50-minutes each (1-4 pm), Dr. McEnerney will work specifically with researchers in health sciences, natural sciences and engineering, and social sciences and humanities in order to focus on techniques for creating value in specific disciplines for specific readers.
Whether or not they reserve an afternoon session with Dr. McEnerney, attendees are encouraged to stay and make use of a quiet, writing-only space in which they can work on grant applications or other projects.
Research Project Advisors will also be available for one-on-one or small-group consultations in twenty-minute blocks.

Online on Microsoft TeamsHorizon Europe is the European Union’s funding program for research and innovation with a budget of €95.5 billion over 7 years.
Under its Pillar II, Horizon Europe funds collaborative research and innovation projects by international teams of researchers to tackle global challenges in areas such as health, climate change, energy and digital economy. As of 2024, as Canada becomes associated to Pillar II, Canadian partners in such research consortia are eligible for direct funding from the European Union.
Watch this information session to learn more about Horizon Europe and how this funding opportunity may be relevant to you.

Monday April 15, 2024Inclusivity is essential to creating an enriching and innovative environment where all individuals can thrive and contribute to scientific advancements. In this session we will share some practices we employ to create and foster a research environment where all individuals feel valued, respected, and supported. We have found these practices to enhance our ability to communicate, collaborate, and solve problems within our research team. Our discussion will focus on relatively easy-to-implement, sustainable, and effective approaches that contribute to an inclusive and efficient lab environment.
