JHSPG Receives 2019 Research!America Microgrant
We are excited to announce that the Johns Hopkins Science Policy Group was awarded a $900 grant from Research!America to fund bipartisan engagement efforts in advocating for and promoting science and evidence-based policy.
The microgrant will be used to fund our 2nd Annual Baltimore City Hall Poster Session in March 2020, which will bring early career researchers (graduate students and post-doctoral students) to present their work to our city council representatives, as well as the Baltimore community, on issues pertaining to our community (gun violence, opioid crisis, nutrition, women's health, etc) to provide an opportunity for dialogue and mutual learning as well as helping trainees learn how to communicate science to a broader audience.
