In this Junior Faculty Career Development Session, attendees will hear a series of lectures focused on Mentorship. These didactic lectures will feature mentoring experts sharing their experiences in how to receive, provide, and optimize mentoring. Mentor/Mentee relationships can be hard to foster, and in this session, we will focus on empowering junior faculty with the tools to get the most out of this relationship. Junior faculty will hear from mentors and mentees both in the clinical and basic research fields and gain a better understanding on what it is to be a good mentor and mentee.
