Labor Day Weekend Round-Up

The New Voices team and I are heading out early today and won't be back until Tuesday morning. We strongly advocate for you getting outside and enjoying some time off too, but with Earl on the way, that may not be possible for everyone. So to keep you busy indoors, we've got a round-up of opportunities and news.

If you're in the DC metro area, save September 23 for a Women in Science congressional briefing, moderated by New Voice Sheril Kirschenbaum.

Early career scientists who do outreach could now win an award for public engagement from the AAAS. Nominations are due October 15.

The American Medical Association Foundation is accepting applications for its Seed Grant Research Program until December 6, 2010. See www.amafoundation.org/go/seedgrants.

Just for fun, let your love of college football (my team, the Gamecocks, kicked off the season last night) and research combine in this great look at the Top 25 teams' research programs.
