DESCRIPTION:Where do you find little-known (and low-competition) scholarshi
 ps? How do you approach companies to fund your research? This seminar will
  focus on alternative funding sources for graduate students in neuroscienc
 e and related disciplines.Other topics will include: traditional funding s
 ources (federal\, provincial\, and internal)\, how to choose which scholar
 ships to apply for (e.g.\, stacking\, quotas\, estimating expected value)\
 , common pitfalls (e.g.\, internal/external deadlines\, departmental nomin
 ation\, where not to look for scholarships)\, and overcoming common excuse
 s (low GPA\, no publications\, not enough time). The seminar will feature 
 stories of McGill graduate students who obtained substantial funding throu
 gh traditional and alternative sources.The seminar will be led by Jay Olso
 n\, M.Sc.\, a PhD candidate in Psychiatry at McGill. He has been offered o
 ver 25 grants\, scholarships\, and financial awards during his graduate st
 udies\, from Mitacs\, SSHRC\, NSERC\, FRQSC\, IRRST\, SCEH\, and other unp
