Neuro-EM Scholars Program Retreat
The next Neuro-EM Scholars Program Retreat will be held December 2-5, 2025 in Ann Arbor, MI. More details will be available soon.
Retreat Overview
The Neuro-EM Scholars Annual Retreat provides a number of training opportunities related to grant writing and emergency medicine research. The Retreat also provides an opportunity for early career researchers to interact directly with the Neuro-EM Scholars Program national advisory committee members, senior emergency medicine faculty, NIH/NINDS career development leaders, and peers. The small-group interactive format allows for individual mentoring and career development advice.
Funded K12 Scholars
Funded Neuro-EM scholars are expected to attend the Retreat during the 3 years of K12 funding, plus the 2 years immediately following K12 funding (i.e. for 5 consecutive years).
At the Retreat, scholars provide updates on their research progress, receive mentoring from senior emergency medicine investigators and NIH personnel, and provide advice, insights, and mentorship to new Neuro-EM Program applicants and future scholars.
K12 Applicants
All K12 applicants are required to attend the Annual Neuro-EM Retreat and will be interviewed by Program Leadership during the meeting as part of the application process.
Travel, lodging, and meal costs will be covered for all K12 applicants.
Pipeline Participants
The primary benefit of participating in the Pipeline Program is attending the Neuro-EM Retreat, where attendees will receive grant writing and career development training 1-2 years before applying for the K12 award.
Travel, lodging, and meal costs will be covered for all selected Pipeline participants.
