Our mentorship program aims to provide guidance and support to individuals in the research field, with a particular focus on career development, networking, and grant opportunities. The program is designed to foster connections between mentors and mentees, with a focus on collaboration, skill-building, and professional growth.

Mentors will primarily consist of mid-advanced career academics with substantial experience in successful grant applications interested in fostering the development of researchers from communities and institutions that have been historically underrepresented in NIH research.

You can learn more about our program structure, expectations of mentors and the mentor-mentee matching process in the Mentor Expectations Guide.
