Research grants and prestigious awards are two important components in the career of academic scholars. With grant support, scholars can establish their labs, make new scientific discoveries and technologies, and advance knowledge for society. Prestigious awards signal the importance of an individual’s contributions and can offer both resources and social capital to further their research and ideas. In this webinar, speakers and panelists will discuss three independent studies investigating the track record of Asian scholars in winning grants and awards. These reports include comprehensive analyses of proposal outcomes from the National Science Foundation and National Institutes of Health, as well as award recipients in the fields of biology and medicine. We invite all members of the academic community to join this discussion.
