Dear EMBRIO Community,


The Gardner lab is conducting the third annual evaluation survey supporting Thrust 4 research into the interdisciplinary nature of the Institute, as well as supporting continual improvement and feedback for the structure and functioning of EMBRIO. Individual emails were delivered to each active member’s inbox last Monday via the Qualtrics Survey System. Please complete this mandatory survey by March 8th at the latest! In addition, an NSF BII-wide effort that is supported with an RCN grant, is gearing up to develop targeted mentoring resources and trainings for everyone engaged in interdisciplinary research. The working group has requested that EMBRIO members participate in this input survey RCN interdisciplinary mentorship survey<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcolostate.az1.qualtrics.com%2Fjfe%2Fform%2FSV_cAfn47yAsKVKfrw&data=05%7C02%7Cembrio-list%40ecn.purdue.edu%7Cebee8a46f83348cfe6fc08dc3c7ad7c5%7C4130bd397c53419cb1e58758d6d63f21%7C0%7C0%7C638451745495239456%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=QjI9wkFb0ihatKUGD%2FBuXHAoE7m521d%2Bo6wM7l5xIBg%3D&reserved=0>.
