SUMMARY:Information Session: Rita Levi Montalcini Scholarship from the Dompé Foundation
DESCRIPTION:Established in 2020\, the Dompé Foundation is committed to supporting the university education of talented young individuals in STEM fields\, ultimately contributing to the advancement of scientific knowledge and the exploration of new research areas\, particularly in the life sciences. More specifically\, it aims at breaking down financial barriers to higher education for aspiring scientists and researchers who possess talent and determination\, but lack the necessary economic resources to pursue undergraduate or postgraduate studies in STEM disciplines. \nOn Monday\, December 1\, staff from Weill Cornell Medicine and the Cornell Graduate School in Ithaca will be hosting an information session with the Dompé Foundation about the Rita Levi Montalcini scholarship program\, which financially supports students of all nationalities already admitted to a master’s\, Ph.D. or post-doctoral program in neuroscience and/or neurobiology at a US university. \nSince 2021\, the Rita Levi Montalcini Scholarship – named for the1986 Nobel laureate who co-discovered nerve growth factor – has supported over 50 scholars enrolled at U.S. universities with 2-3 years of supplemental funding. The application deadline is January 31\, 2026 and this info session will include information from the foundation staff as well as a panel of scientists who have been supported by this scholarship. \nPlease complete the Zoom registration link in order to attend this information session. Among other materials\, applicants will be asked to submit a Europass format curriculum vitae\, short abstract on their current research\, and two-page statement of motivation. \nFor full information on scholarship application requirements\, please contact: segreteria@fondazionedompe.org and/or see https://www.dompefoundation.org/scholarships/usa/

These partnerships advance both research\, educational\, and professional development agendas. There is a relatively broad spectrum of organizations and strategic agendas to develop such partnerships\, but this discussion will consider one type of partnership that has received continued growing attention over the past decade. Although substantive partnerships between majority institutions and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) have been occurring at least since the 1970s\, in recent years due to the research trajectory of many of these institutions\, expanding opportunities exist presently. For example\, the National Academies of Science\, Engineering\, and Medicine (NASEM) has described these institutions as a relatively untapped national resource for talent. The importance and benefits of this type of partnership in higher education and recent examples of strategies used to create equitable and sustainable partnerships with HBCUs will be discussed. \nSpeaker\n \nDr. Wayne A. Scales (Cornell PhD ‘88)\, J. Byron Maupin Professor of Engineering\, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University\nProf. Wayne Scales received BS and MS degrees in Honors Electrical Engineering and Applied Mathematics from Virginia Tech and the PhD from Cornell University in Electrical Engineering and Applied Physics with focus in Space Plasma Physics. He was an ASEE Postdoctoral Fellow in the Space Plasma Physics Branch of the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory. Afterwards\, he joined the Bradley Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Virginia Tech and is currently the J. Byron Maupin Professor of Engineering and was founding Director of the Center for Space Science and Engineering Research (Space@VT) and founding Co-Director of the Interdisciplinary Graduate Education Program in Remote Sensing. Prof. Scales is also an affiliate Professor in the Kevin T. Crofton Department of Aerospace and Ocean Engineering. He has served as Special Assistant to the Dean of Engineering and Senior Consultant to the Vice President of Research and Innovation working on special initiatives in Quantum Information Science\, Nanoscale Science\, and Postdoctoral Affairs. He currently serves as Associate Vice Provost for Faculty Affairs where his responsibilities include supporting special initiatives involving faculty development as well as research and workforce development partnerships with MSIs and HBCUs. His work in this area has been supported by the National Science Foundation\, the Sloan Foundation\, and the Genentech Foundation Fund. \nThis keynote will be held on Cornell University central campus\, and livestream access will also be available to remotely participating graduate students and postdocs.  \nSponsorship \nThis is a collaborative initiative of the Cornell Graduate School Office of Inclusion and Student Engagement (OISE)\, the Office of Career and Professional Development Future Faculty and Academic Careers program\, and the Office of Postdoctoral Studies\, \nQuestions? \nInstitute Dates: Tuesday\, June 17 (In-Person & Zoom); Wednesday\, June 18 (Zoom) \nTimes: June 17\, 12:00 – 2:00 pm ET; June 18\, 12:30 pm – 4:45 pm ET \nLocations: June 17\, G10 Biotech & Zoom; June 18\, Zoom \nRegistration: https://blogs.cornell.edu/futureprofs/registration-2025/ \nRegistration Priority Dates: June 12\, 2025 (for In-Person Participation); June 16\, 2025 (for Virtual Participation) \nPlease direct any questions to: futurefaculty@cornell.edu
