We hosted the Winn CDA Cohort 2 Mentor Virtual Orientation session on Friday, December 9th, 2022 @ 12:00-1:00 pm ET.
Mentorship is an integral part of the Winn CDA program. Each Winn CDA Scholar will be mentored by a Principal Investigator (PI), yourself in this case.
A few key areas of the mentorship include:
- Twenty-five per cent (25%) of the Mentor’s focus will be on career, personal, and professional mentoring for the Scholar.
- The Mentor will provide guidance on career and professional development with a particular focus on challenges, opportunities, and strategies for URM researchers.
- Mentor-Scholar interaction requirements include at least four meetings per month, of which three will be related to clinical trial research related activities.
We were excited to meet each of you, share some mentor role details, and answer any questions you may have about the program and your role.
