Receiving a research-focused Loan Repayment Award from #NIH was a game changer for me. Happy to share my materials with anyone in @SPPDiv54. DM or email me if you're interested in seeing them (caveat that they're 10+ years old at this point).
Any @SPPDiv54 members attending #SPPAC2023 who have gotten or are working towards student loan forgiveness?
I’d LOVE to catch you at the conference and ask you a few questions! I’m trying to make sense of my options as I approach internship, postdoc, and beyond
