Mission

A group of four people presenting sheets of paper with notes on them.

Our mission is to advance the science and practice of mentorship.

  • Facilitate research mentor and mentee training for mentees and mentors at all career stages and across disciplines
  • Develop and study new approaches and resources for advancing mentoring relationships
  • Promote cultural change that values excellence in research mentoring
  • Support a network of those engaged in enhancing and studying research mentoring relationships
  • Advance the research enterprise
Word cloud. The words are about the same size and include: Mentee, expectations, effective, STEM, culturally-aware, quality, training, professional, experience, research, inclusion, independence, understanding, relationships, communication, and development.

Our aspiration is to improve mentoring relationships for trainees and mentors across all career stages and disciplines through the development, implementation and study of evidence-based and culturally responsive interventions.
