Strategies for Mentoring and Teaching Scientific Communication

Wednesday, March 27, 2024
12:00 PM – 1:30 PM CST

Scientific communication is essential for trainees to progress into research careers, but mentors are not often trained in effectively facilitating the development of trainee scientific communication skills. In this session, speakers will present tips for effectively mentoring trainees in scientific communication, including speaking, presenting, and writing. Presentations will be followed by hands-on practice exercises you can use with your trainees.

By the end of this session, attendees will be able to:

  • Describe the role mentors play in trainee development in scientific communication and intention to stay in research careers
  • Apply strategies for incorporating scientific communication into teaching and everyday mentoring
