Mentoring Compact
The agreements between mentors (faculty supervisor) and trainees (undergraduate students, postbaccalaureate researchers, graduate students, research associates, and postdoctoral scientists) are often ambiguous, where assumptions can sometimes erroneously drive critical decisions and interactions. Defining these expectations upfront can help prevent misunderstandings and ensure trainee research career development that is both productive and mutually rewarding.
We take mentoring seriously and have established a compact for the lab.
