What was 2018 PPI-2?
"2018PPI-2" was the address of a 2018 section on this domain that belonged to the Postdoctoral Preparation Institute series, the career-transition workshops for postdocs that FASEB ran with NIGMS support. The "-2" in the folder name suggests a second set of pages created that year, but we have not found a public source that confirms the event's full title, dates or venue.
We would rather leave a gap than guess. If you need the details for a CV or report, the organizer's records or your own registration emails are the reliable source.
What did the series cover?
The confirmed editions give a good idea of the format. Each was a selective, one- to two-day program for postdocs, sometimes including advanced PhD students and new faculty, with sessions on:
- the range of career paths open to PhD scientists
- job applications, interviews and negotiating a startup package
- grant writing, communication and leadership
- finding an institution that fits and building a professional network
See the 2016 and 2017 pages for dated, sourced details.
