Since mentoring profoundly affects the well-being of individuals and teams, and consequently, scientific productivity and success, Drs. Niv and Murray designed the first-ever for-credit graduate course on mentoring at Princeton. While there is no magic formula, there are evidence-based best practices for mentoring, as well as field-tested ways to develop a reflective and inclusive personal style. In this session, they will share their insights into mentoring best practices, and you’ll hear from current graduate students in the course on their experiences. Speakers: Dr. Laura Murray, Associate Director, McGraw Center for Teaching and Learning, Princeton UniversityProfessor Yael Niv, Princeton Neuroscience Institute, Princeton Univesity Laura Bustamante, Ph.D. Candidate in Neuroscience Mira Nencheva, Ph.D. Candidate in Neuroscience This event is part of the 2021 GradFUTURES Forum: Broadening the Impact of the Ph.D. Within and Beyond the Academy.
