<br>
Navigating toward your future can be daunting. Regardless of
the career path(s) you are pursuing, today’s scientist faces a
competitive job market that rewards productivity in the lab,
stellar communication skills, a strong professional network,
and professional confidence. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Creating an Individual
Development Plan (IDP) is one way to help you strategically
work toward these goals, advocate for yourself, and take
advantage of lucky opportunities that might come along. <br>
<br>
This workshop is designed to prepare scientists for creating
their IDP, with practical strategies for evaluating career
options, setting achievable goals, engaging mentors, and
adapting to change as your plan progresses.

style="font-size:11.0pt"> is Assistant Dean, Career &
Professional Development and Assistant Professor of
Biochemistry & Molecular Pharmacology in the Graduate
School of Biomedical Sciences at the University of
Massachusetts Medical School (UMMS). As PI of grants from the
National Institute of Health and Burroughs Wellcome Fund,
Cynthia leads efforts to integrate professional development
into the graduate school’s curriculum and founded UMMS’s
Center for Biomedical Career Development. Cynthia transitioned
to UMMS in September 2012 from University of California, San
Francisco (UCSF), where she founded the Preparing Future
Faculty program and oversaw professional skills programs for
biomedical scientists. Cynthia co-authored
<em>myIDP</em>, an interactive career-planning website
launched in 2012 on <em>Science</em> Careers. A PhD-trained
scientist herself, she has great interest in national issues
related to career development, and in 2011 published a
research-based essay to encourage the incorporation of career
development into the training of biomedical scientists. Her
work in these areas has been highlighted in
<em>Science, Nature Careers, NIH Biomedical Workforce Report,
NIH Extramural Nexus Newsletter, Inside Higher Ed,</em> and
the
<em>Chronicle of Higher Education</em>.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
