On behalf of the undersigned organizations, we urge you to co-sponsor and champion the Wise Investment in our Children Act (WIC Act).

The WIC Act thoughtfully reduces barriers to participation in the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), clearing the way for a new generation of healthy and productive Americans.

Using Mentored Peer Review of Journal Articles as a Strategy for Graduate Student Development
Thursday, March 7, 2019 | 1 - 2 p.m. Eastern | Register
About the Webinar
Training of graduate students to be future scholars often focuses on research design, data collection and interpretation, but commonly the translation of that knowledge to critical appraisal is less developed. The peer review process has been developed to provide a formal structure to evaluate research before it is widely disseminated. The skills needed to translate research training into meaningful and effective peer reviews need to be fostered during training of graduate students. The presenters will discuss a model of peer review training that guides masters and doctoral students through the critical appraisal process to develop a respectful and thorough review of a manuscript submission. This process includes the ability for students to review the anonymous submission independently. After independent reviews are complete, a meeting is held to discuss the strengths and limitations of the paper, as well as the broader contribution to the science.

Earlier this month, Danny Park reopened his parents' Los Angeles corner store. Best Market, as it was known, was in many ways an ordinary mom-and-pop shop. Park and his mother worked the register. They sold sundries, like batteries, Pepto-Bismol, Mentos and rolling papers. Racks of chips and candies sat near the entrance. The store's two aisles of food were stocked with pantry staples, like beans, tuna, jam and bread. Drinks were in back.
