Amber Crabtree earns NISE award
On behalf of the “Neurodiversity Inspired Science and Engineering (NISE)” traineeship program, we are pleased to notify you that Amber Crabtree has been awarded an NISE Traineeship including stipend, tuition (cost-shared with your college/school), and health insurance support, beginning August 16, 2023. This award is for 12 months, with possibility of renewal if training grant funds remain available. After the end of the training grant appointment, you are expected to find alternate sources of financial support for the remainder of the student’s doctoral training.
This support comes with the expectation that trainees will maintain proper academic studies in their home Ph.D. program and attend NISE sponsored events. Trainees are required to enroll in the sequence of three NISE graduate seminars that count toward the NISE Graduate Certificate. We also encourage trainees to be active participants of the Vanderbilt Autism and Neurodiversity Alliance (VANA) community of students, staff, and faculty. We also want to stress that your participation in the various activities of the program to the fullest extent of your abilities is expected since we are investing considerable resources with this commitment.
