Mentoring the Mentors Workshop for HIV Researchers (2019)

2018-2019 CFAR Mentoring Program
-

The two-day workshop is an intensive and interactive meeting designed to provide mid-level and senior faculty in HIV research with the tools for more effective mentoring, especially of mentees of diversity (defined mainly as those from underrepresented racial/ethnic minorities). The workshops discusses barriers related to being an early career investigator of diversity (e.g. microaggressions, unconscious bias), and features didactic and interactive sessions on practical tips for mentoring, including sessions on distance mentoring, funding sources for mentoring efforts, time management, leadership styles, manuscript writing, grant writing, individual development plans, teaching work-life balance to mentees, alternative funding strategies, forming teams, giving and receiving feedback, etc. Descriptions and findings from the 1st workshop, the 2nd workshop and the 3rd workshop are found here.
