<description>Our History and Mission The UC Riverside Postdoctoral Association (RPA) was formed in 2014 by former UCR postdocs Anna Locke, Carol Davis, Elia Scudiero, Jorge Lozano Juste, Laetitia Poedivin, Lisa Pang, Marco Schiavon, and Poonamjot Deol. Their vision was to conceive an association that nurtures a professional and social network among postdoctoral and visiting scholars and project scientists — postdocs. The association has an important advisory role giving the Graduate Division input on the needs of the postdoctoral community at UCR.</description>
