CCR is committed to creating a work culture that supports the needs and concerns of women scientists, on issues such as equal pay, career development, workplace flexibility and a strong commitment to combat harassment in its many forms.
CCR's elected Women Scientist Advisors (WSA) support and promote career development for our women scientists, represent their concerns to CCR leadership and sponsor workshops and visits by distinguished female scientists.
The NCI Sallie Rosen Kaplan (SRK) Postdoctoral Fellowship for Women Scientists provides additional opportunities to help prepare NCI's female postdoctoral fellows to transition to independent research careers.
CCR staff also benefit from a wide array of NIH benefits and work-life initiatives including nursing mothers program, child and family programs, and workplace flexibilities, such as telework and alternative work schedules.
