investigators (e.g., < 3 years) are particularly encouraged to apply, as 
are senior postdoctoral scholars on the cusp of tenure-track research 
positions*.

*Key focus areas*

·*Recognizing and understanding leadership in a science setting*

·*Using negotiation as a tool in scientific discussions and problem solving*

·*Identifying and resolving conflicts in the lab*

·*Dealing with difficult people and situations*
