The
One-on-One Mentoring Program provides fellows and junior
faculty members an opportunity to meet with a more senior
faculty member and discuss issues related to career
development. Topics for discussion might include advice
about clinical, educational, investigative, or administrative
career paths and/or discussion of work in progress.
For a junior faculty member, the One-on-One Mentoring
program facilitates development of a relationship with
a more senior role model outside of the mentees
institution. This year several leaders in the STFM have
volunteered to be mentors. This is a great opportunity
for fellows or junior faculty to meet with more senior
members of our society from other academic centers in
a casual setting.
The
One-on-One mentoring session is planned for Sunday April
28 from 7 - 8:15 a.m (during the common interest breakfasts).
However, mentors and mentees are free to meet at other
mutually agreeable times during the meeting. A list
of mentors with their academic interests is provided
below. Other mentors are also available. Please feel
free to request a mentor not on this list and we will
attempt to arrange a meeting with them.
Fellows
and junior faculty interested in participating should
send the attached sign-up form by fax to Linda Meurer,
MD, MPH c/o Veronica Ruleford at (414) 456-6523 or by
e-mail to vrulefor@mcw.edu
by March 20, 2002. Please send a copy of your updated
CV with the application. You will be notified prior
to the meeting as to which mentor has been assigned
to you.
This program is sponsored by the STFM Group on Faculty
Development and Membership Committee. Special thanks
to the Groups on Women's Networking, Minority Health
Care and Hispanic Faculty for their collaboration
