Mentoring for success in science
On November 14, the Junior Faculty at Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm, together with Nature Genetics, hosted a workshop for early-career researchers about mentoring in the sciences. The goal of the workshop was to identify what postdocs and new faculty members wanted from a potential mentor and how the institute could go about establishing a formal mentoring program. The workshop was a direct result of a previous workshop at KI, also co-organized by Nature Genetics. A commentary about that workshop can be found here.
