Postponing two NIH Biosketch/OS webinars originally scheduled for tomorrow

In follow-up to the announcement I sent yesterday (see Update on NIH Biosketches and Other Support), we are expecting NIH to release an announcement by the end of this week containing additional guidance on the new Biosketches and Other Support format pages and the possible extension of its deadline. Therefore, in order to save you time, we will be canceling tomorrow’s previously scheduled Biosketch and Other Support webinars. If you registered you will receive a cancellation notice shortly. We would rather wait to continue with the Biosketch and Other Support webinars until NIH’s announcement is released containing critical information.

We will, however, continue with the SciENcv webinar scheduled for Thursday, April 22 at 2pm.  All other webinars will remain on the schedule until further notice, which include (note you can only register using a Columbia-affiliated email address):

NIH Other Support Format Pages

Tuesday, April 27, 1:00 pm – 2:30 pm

Changes to the NIH Biosketch
