I am planning to attend the 8th annual NIH Career Symposium in Bathesda, MD.  I am finishing my second year of my PhD and would like to see different options available when I finish next year.  I would like to be a part of the skills sessions they offer including getting published, interviewing and networking, finding a postdoc, grant writing and more.  Networking at the NIH will also be beneficial to my future.

I propose the following expenses.
$300 for 2 nights hotel,
$100 for travel (gas, tolls)
