Women in Training Mentorship Welcome Brunch
Women in Training Mentorship Welcome Brunch
Camille Wang (G3)
The MSTP Women in Training (WIT) Committee held their first mentorship welcome brunch on Saturday, November 13. In collaboration with the Women on Track (WoT) program, the WIT committee has established a mentorship pipeline that connects WoT participants, who are typically academic faculty in medicine and/or science, with current MSTP trainees. Mentoring aspects can include academic and career advising, work/life balance, and more. Mentors meet with mentees on a regular to semi-regular basis, depending on the needs and requests of the mentees. Currently, over 10 pairings have been made, and we are excited to continue to grow the program as we improve and incorporate feedback.
