Testimonials
Please express my gratitude to the Edge Reviewers for their time and feedback on my grant. I took their feedback to heart and am proud of the R01 I ultimately submitted after getting some help from a mentor incorporating their comments.

I just told my husband that all I really needed for Christmas was Flight Tracker - Now I’m good!! Thanks so much for your help and support.

~ Flight Tracker User

This is a total fan letter. The newsletter is absolutely fabulous! I almost always end up forwarding it to colleagues or to my former PhD students who are now early in faculty positions and a couple early career faculty I mentor at other universities. I have also used some articles for my Prosem 1 class for entering doc students. The articles are great, innovative and accurate ( in my experience). Thank you so much for putting these newsletters and articles together! Keep them coming! Hope you are getting lots of KUDOS!
