Purpose of Mentorship
Recognize faculty talents and expand upon them Prepare next generation of clinical and translational
research Ensure retention of faculty Sustain a culture of academic achievement
History of Mentorship at CNMC
Initiated formal one-on-one program in 2000
Success as evidenced by increase in numbers K and K-like awardees in increasing number of mentored awards Trainees and graduates of Master Teachers, IPPCR, K30 (DCCRTC)
programs, attendance at ASAP courses Federal and other peer reviewed grants/contracts Leadership in discipline specific organizations especially APS/SPR
With Growth in Faculty A New Approach Needed
Gap analyses and White Paper (2006) done with help of annual SAC review, Working Groups and K retreat
recommendations- Transition from mentored (K) to independent (R) investigators critical to growth and reputation
- Conflicting demands: clinical versus “academic” time
- Paucity of midlevel faculty mentors
- Infrastructure for clinical research limits achievement
Task Force Recommendations
Establish “next generation” of mentoring through Master Mentor Group
Recognize mentorship as part of annual goals and objectives process
Establish Bench-to-Bedside Professorial Rounds
- integration of COEs and CRI Focus ASAP curriculum Increase networking opportunities for K awardees
Master Mentor Group: Who are they?
Established in 2008 Consists of 16 CRI and COE midlevel and senior faculty
with funded clinical and translational research and history of successful mentorship
Responsive to concept of interdisciplinary research and integration of clinical and research enterprise
Meet every other month
Master Mentor Group Activities
Participate in ASAP lectures, K30 curriculum and advise on modifications of same
Orchestrate annual K retreat Annually, orient fellows to CRI resources and graduate
students to clinical opportunities Participate in “sourcing” mentors at and outside of
CNMC and developing mentorship teams Future
- tools for mentees, like Individual Academic Career Plan (IACP)- pre-grant submission reviews- fellows “concept” and feasibility review
Team Science and Mentorship: Guiding Principles
Individual creativity preserved while taking advantage of team synergy
Motivation for and support of collaborative approach to answering questions
Communication is key Integrity, trust, respect and sharing regardless of
“status”
Team Science and Mentorship: Common attributes / disparate constructs
Top down, one on one “guidance” subsumed by peer to peer interactions
Communication, integrity, trust, respect and sharing is the same
Too soon to tell how mentee will flourish in team science environment
Team Science and Mentorship: Options
Team mentorship – common in K awards Peer to peer mentorship – great for critiquing grants,
manuscripts and some academic “way funding” Multiple mentors for different aspects of academic life – scientific, career, work life balance, etc.
