Because of the national need for scientists who are both committed to research and well prepared for the undergraduate teaching enterprise, the Department of Biology at Western Kentucky University (WKU) invites applications for a Research & Teaching Postdoctoral Fellowship in Neurobiology.
April 7th at Quinnipiac University in Hamden, Connecticut.
The abstract submission is closed (but could be opened for tomorrow with a bit of persuasion) and there are a couple of great workshops for student and faculty that you all might be interested in.

This is vastly better than most lotteries!
The Faculty for Undergraduate (FUN) welcomes the submission of articles for its weekly online newsletter. The following types of contribution will be considered:
