Women In Cancer Research (WISE)

The Women In cancer reSEarch (WISE) group is designed for women interested in pursuing a career in cancer biomedical research who are currently working in cancer-focused labs. We are looking to provide mentorship to women – specifically senior Graduate students, Post-docs, and Instructors – who are interested in continuing a career in biomedical research (in both academic and non-academic settings). We hope to create a welcoming environment to exchange advice and ideas regarding how to move to the next level.

WISE hosts a combination of formal talks and discussions on topics such as career development, grant writing, starting a lab, etc., as well as informal gatherings for socializing and networking.
