Training
Training the next generation of experts is one of the highest priorities for the TEAM Hub. Highly Qualified Personnel (HQP) are fundamental to our success, and we aim to provide HQP with the skills necessary for achieving success in all areas encompassed by our initiatives and projects.
Seminar Series
The TEAM Hub hosts bi-weekly and monthly seminar series. The bi-weekly series, called ‘Research in Progress’ (RIP), features research carried on by all trainees. It is a great opportunity for trainees to showcase their latest progress to the TEAM Hub experts and to engage in interesting and rich discussion. The monthly series, called ‘TEAM Hub Connection,’ features invited speakers from local, national, and international research groups. These guests talk about their most recent projects and allow us to expand our network by building bridges and connections in different areas.
Workshops
The TEAM Hub hosts a variety of workshops whose subjects range from technical training in microscopy, bioprinting, and cell culture to general skill-building in scientific writing and public speaking. Every two years, the TEAM Hub also hosts its own research workshop, with researchers, trainees, and members of the community coming together at Carleton University to discuss the latest discoveries and to brainstorm new directions over three days of meetings and social events.
Networking
Through our seminar series, workshops, conference attendance, and events, we are constantly expanding our network. In addition to participating in such research-focused activities, the TEAM Hub hosts social events aimed at strengthening our internal relationships and allowing all team members to meet and build new connections with researchers and trainees from a variety of areas. We are always encouraging our trainees to lead additional social meetings.
Mentorship Program
We take pride in supporting our trainees at their different career stages. From undergraduate to technical specialists, from early career researchers to more experienced members of our TEAM Hub Advisory Board, we foster opportunities for our members to connect and exchange professional experiences through informal chats, workshops, and working groups focused on specific goals.
