We are aiming to write two editorials for SICB societal journals about the wide diversity of faculty experiences at PUIs (teaching load, research support, service expectations, etc.) and best practices for applying to PUI faculty jobs ( interview questions, teaching and research statements, etc.).
SICB PUI
We want to include summary data from SICB attendees (current or former faculty at PUIs) in the editorials about their experiences at their institutions and their advice for applying for PUI jobs. Please respond to the survey by Friday May 8th! TIA!
For both events, meet at the PUI booth in the exhibit hall and we'll break into small groups from there!
Don't miss our mentoring villages, happening at #SICB2026 today! If you are a student or postdoc interested in a career at a PUI, stop by from 10-11 to chat with current faculty about what it's like to work at a PUI and how to write a competitive application.
If you are pre-tenure PUI faculty, come by from 2:30-3:30 for advice from currently tenured faculty.
If you attended PUI events at #SICB2026 in Portland, we'd love to hear your feedback! Please take a few minutes to fill out this survey, which will help us to plan more events in the future. Thanks! forms.gle/AT4qDB7xWARa...
