Core Competencies in Neuroscience Training
As part of its mission to help inform evolving neuroscience workforce and training needs, SfN’s Neuroscience Training Committee has developed Core Competencies in neuroscience training for different training stages that program faculty, administrators, and trainees may consider when developing or evaluating training opportunities. These core competencies were adapted from those of the National Postdoctoral Association.
