Planning Your Scientific Journey
iBiology
Three-week course
June 22nd – July 10th
Being successful as a scientist requires more than acquiring knowledge and developing experimental skills. It also requires: (1) asking a good scientific question, (2) establishing a clear plan of action, and (3) seeking advice along the way. These three topics are the focus of iBiology’s course, “Planning Your Scientific Journey.” Through customizing the iBiology content, we provide summer 2020 undergraduate students an opportunity to explore these topics during their virtual experience. The goal of this course is to have our Summer Undergraduate virtual research student explore research questions that interest them, define potential career goals, and to network with mentors and faculty that can support their scientific journey.

“The American Heart Association is committed to making an impact throughout the country with a focus on health equity. The AHA has created a 2030 Impact Goal to improve healthy life expectancy, and one of the key ways of doing that is the elimination of social influencers of health. The AHA continues to work in the community to give all Americans an equitable shot at good health. Bruce will discuss the AHA’s mission, priorities, and future direction.”
