Some things about AAA that you
may not know...
If you agree that your job as a department chair is to help your young
faculty, students, and postdocs succeed, read on. The American
Association of Anatomists (AAA) gives your anatomy graduate students,
postdocs, & young faculty the special edge they need to jumpstart their
careers. Here’s how AAA can benefit you and your department:
New financial support available. AAA’s Postdoctoral Fellows
Program provides $20,000 salary support for members working in any aspect of
biology relevant to the anatomical sciences. Grad students, postdocs & junior
faculty can apply for a $5,000 Lippincott Williams Wilkins/AAA Education
Research Scholarship, and all members are eligible for our new $1,000 Shortterm Visiting Scholarships.
Grants and awards. Your bottom line will be brighter and lighter,
thanks to AAA’s travel and meeting support. Students & postdocs receive up to
$350 just for giving a poster or platform presentation at the AAA Annual
Meeting. Junior faculty can compete for a $500 travel award. They all can
compete for the $500 Young Anatomist Publications Award. And all AAA
members are eligible for AAA’s Outreach Grants—up to $3,000 to fund a
research meeting or educational program.
Leadership opportunities. A key aspect to promotion and tenure is
service to the profession. AAA offers students, postdocs, & junior faculty a
unique chance to shine on committees and even on the Board of Directors.
In-person networking. The AAA Annual Meeting at Experimental
Biology (April 24-28 in Anaheim, California) is the ideal setting to meet new
mentors, cultivate contacts, and test presentation skills in a forum that’s formal,
yet small enough to foster friendly interaction and constructive feedback.
A chance to be noticed. Students & postdocs can compete for poster
and platform awards, present their work at AAA’s Student/ Postdoc Poster
Session & Reception and receive individual feedback on their Annual Meeting
presentations.
