Research suggests that at least 20% of women never negotiate. This can translate to a pay gap, decreased job satisfaction, and a greater exit from positions. Over a person’s career negotiations will span salary, start-up, resources, and position flexibility, among others. This session will provide tools and strategies for success and confidence in negotiations. Session speakers and panelists will provide examples from their career progression and their work in senior leadership positions. Speakers will span academic disciplines and industry roles.

Obtaining funding is critical for advancing your science. Towards this goal of supporting your scientific pursuits, Program Officers serve as a critical conduit between you, as an applicant, the funding institutions and panels. This session will target orthopedic researchers at various stages of training (trainees, early-career, mid-career, and established investigators) and offer an opportunity for one-on-one and small group networking and discussions with program officers and other officials from various funding agencies.

Developing budgets that appropriately reflect the scope of work we propose in our grants is full of challenges and questions. How do I budget enough to complete the work? What if unforeseen events delay my deliverables? What if I change institutions? This Career Development program will answer these common problems that many of us have and will continue to experience throughout our careers. Established investigators will provide their experience developing budgets for NIH and Industry projects and a grants manager will address the common mistakes and tips for smooth and effective budgeting. Following the talks, we will have tables set up around the room for participants to ask experts in the field how to improve their own budgets.

Powered by the ORS DEI Committee
The past year has heralded a groundswell of support for improving diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in in academia, medicine, and industry. Nevertheless, scientists and clinicians often do not have the experience or knowledge of how to best create lasting structural change within their home institutions. Therefore, the purpose of this workshop is to educate the ORS community on best practices to promote DEI at their home institutions. As a two-part series, this in-person session was preceded by a Virtual Session, in which subject-matter experts presented best practices in DEI programs. During this workshop, the session leads will summarize key points from the virtual session for new participants before interactive, panel-led discussions. The panelists have experience leading DEI change at their respective institutions and will briefly present scholarly work, evidence, and experience in institutional change before leading discussions among the participants. Participants will gain a better understanding of current DEI efforts and share questions and experiences with panelists and fellow participants.

Check out the virtual session recording, Best Practices for Initiating Change to Promote Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, held November 2021!
Learning Objectives:
- Inform participants of evidence-based best practices (and potentially worst practices) for improving diversity, equity, and inclusion within an academic institution
- Describe the funding opportunities and resources available to help implement these practices within science, engineering, and medicine
- Provide a case study of such an effort.

Your biosketch is the critically important document that allows you to speak directly to your reviewers. It is a window into who you are as a scientist and why you are the best person to perform your exciting science! This program will cover some key aspects of a high-impact NIH biosketch and begin with 3 short talks from experts with advice on (1) how to write a compelling personal statement, (2) how to revise or write your first biosketch based on the new NIH guidelines, and (3) specific guidance for how to maximize the impact of a K-award biosketch. Following the talks, we will break into small groups for trainees or early stage investigators to ask specific questions to established researchers. Finally, we will regather to share our thoughts and ask the most common questions to the expert panel.
