Join SRD’s Virtual Lunch & Learn Series tailored specifically for new and early-career faculty embarking on their research journey at the University of Florida.

Each session is designed as a concise 50-minute virtual workshop held during UF Class Period 6, from 12:50 PM to 1:40 PM. These sessions offer practical tools, actionable advice, and institutional connections to accelerate faculty grant readiness. Attendees will also receive helpful handouts or other resources from each session. This is the first session.
