Abstract

Conferences play an important role in enabling trainees to develop and apply competencies in science, in communication, and in networking during biomedical PhD and postdoctoral training. This article offers guidelines for trainees on how to use conferences to initiate, sustain, and strengthen connections, including in virtual conference formats which could become the norm in the future. Additionally, it provides tips for expanding professional networks via broad mechanisms such as informational interviews. Recommendations in this manuscript are applicable to trainees pursuing diverse career paths in different STEM fields including education, scientific research, policy, advocacy, consulting, and communication. © 2020 Wiley Periodicals LLC.

会议和网络在博士和博士后培养中的重要性
在生物医学博士和博士后培训期间,会议在使受训者能够发展和应用科学、传播和网络方面的能力方面发挥着重要作用。本文为受训者提供了如何利用会议发起、维持和加强联系的指导方针,包括未来可能成为规范的虚拟会议形式。此外,它还提供了通过信息面试等广泛机制扩展专业网络的技巧。本文的建议适用于在STEM不同领域(包括教育、科研、政策、倡导、咨询和传播)追求不同职业道路的学员。©2020 Wiley期刊有限责任公司
