Summer Leadership Institute for Underrepresented Minority Scientists http://www.sacnas.org/leadershipSummer.cfm The SACNAS Summer Leadership Institute is the premier training module for underrepresented minority (URM) scientists interested in amplifying their leadership skills. Developed in collaboration with the American Association for the Advancement of Science <http://www.aaas.org/> (AAAS), the Summer Leadership Institute is an intensive five-day course featuring small group exercises, keynote speakers, leadership development planning, networking opportunities, and extensive community building among selected participants. The summer institute series may be attended as a stand-alone training or, for more in-depth engagement in professional leadership development, participants are encouraged to take part in summer and conference institutes over one or more years.
