Session 2: Nov. 22 from 1-4 p.m.
Where: Online via Zoom
If you are a mentor or would like to be one, attend the research mentoring workshop for faculty Nov. 15 and 22 (must attend both sessions), presented by the Center for Clinical and Translational Science. The training is designed to help faculty who mentor early career researchers, whether junior faculty, postdoctoral trainees, or graduate students, to become more effective research and career mentors. The workshop uses a case-based curriculum designed by the Center for the Improvement of Mentored Experience in Research (CIMER) to “improve [mentoring] relationships at all career stages and promote cultural change that values excellence in research mentoring as a critical aspect of diversifying the research workforce.” The discussion-based approach provides mentors a forum to solve mentoring dilemmas with their peers.
Topics will include: establishing expectations; communications; assessing understanding; addressing diversity; fostering independence.
