Does this sound like you?

→ I have solid training and put in the effort, but I haven’t been able to establish research independence. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong.  Why am I not successful at this yet?

→ I’ve considered starting a new project, but I get anxious. What if I share my ideas with others and they respond poorly or even steal them? Will I regret continuing to play it safe?

→ I always focused on building my technical skills and mastering my scientific expertise, and now I spend so much time managing people and projects in my lab.  Where do I even start to learn about how to do this better?

→ I’ve been doing this for a LONG time, and I have several grants and a good track record, but I feel like I’m in a rut! I am buried in administrative and other demands and don’t even remember the last time I had time to think about brainstorming or building toward something bigger - like a large grant or a center. How do I find the time?

MEET DR. CAMPO

Hi, I’m a business school professor committed to studying what makes impactful leaders and labs in top universities across the United States. Over the past decade, I’ve developed frameworks, tools, and techniques that have all been rigorously tested in research studies funded by the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation. 

I want to share what I’ve learned with YOU, providing action-by-action steps you need to build your research capacity. If you've been creating systems in your labs and centers based on the “my advisor did it this way” model, the Research Career Accelerator gives you the processes I've helped other scientific teams implement to get more grants, make more remarkable progress, and spend time on what matters most – the science.

In this program, I take the guesswork out of running an efficient and effective lab or center so you can make faster strides toward scientific impact. The result? You get the gift of TIME back into your day, you lead like you want, and your team’s productivity is amplified.
