The Leadership Development for Researchers (LEADER) Program is designed for junior faculty to lead a research group and drive their research agenda. The course provides insight into leadership and team building as well as direction on how to develop and manage a scientific laboratory or research program, improve productivity, and harness creativity and innovation. The program was created to bridge the gap between the scientific expertise that led individuals to a career in academic medicine and the management skills required to succeed as leaders of small business units.
We congratulate Neill Li, MD, Assistant Professor of orthopaedic Surgery at the School of Medicine, on successfully completing this program.
