Fellowships
The RSL encourages trainees to apply for fellowships and other forms of financial support--the process is informative and a key form of career preparation (especially for a research faculty path), and any awarded funds allow the trainee additional research flexibility and help the PI & lab. The RSL helps to facilitate and streamline this process by providing information on the most common trainee fellowship opportunities (below), and holding info & prep sessions in advance of the various deadlines.
