Higher Education - Ann Arbor, Michigan, United States
The University of Michigan Postdoctoral Association (UMPDA) is a volunteer organization whose main objective is to represent the interests and issues of postdoctoral fellows at the University of Michigan. We are an organization dedicated to bridging the training gap between the laboratory and the changing culture of biomedical science.Our focus is to augment professional development provided by faculty mentors and serve as a forum to identify and address specific needs. As the largest collective post-doctoral organization within the University of Michigan, we understand our responsibility to the U-M community. We will freely provide our knowledge and resources to all doctoral candidates and non-biomedical post-doctoral fellows to the best of our ability.
