Welcome SRP Students, Postdocs, and Alumni!

The Student/Postdoc/Alumni Network (SPAN) was established to bring together scientists from SRP's unique multi-disciplinary training cores. SPAN was created as an extension of the SRP mission to advance understanding of the human and ecological risks from hazardous substances as well as the development of new environmental technologies for the cleanup of hazardous waste sites.

SPAN is a group of students, postdocs, and alumni who are or were funded by the Superfund Research Program (SRP). SPAN helps its members connect professionally and socially with SRP-funded trainees at other universities, develop and expand their professional network, and stay updated on career and employment opportunities.

The Opportunities for Trainees webpage has information about career advancement, funding and employment opportunities, and grant information.

SPAN Leadership Committee

The SPAN Leadership Committee is a small group of SRP trainees (students, postdocs, and alumni) providing input for SRP's efforts to augment trainee interactions and networking. It organizes social events at meetings, provides feedback and input to SRP Program Staff, and provides an excellent opportunity for student leadership within the SRP.

This group convenes virtually several times per year. If you are interested in joining the SPAN Committee, please contact Danielle Carlin ([email protected]). 

Get Connected
