The University of Kentucky Research will be hosting an upcoming webinar: Developing Mutually Beneficial Mentor-Mentee Relationships on Monday, May 22nd, 3:00PM Eastern

Effective mentoring is mutually beneficial to both the mentor and mentee and plays an essential role in training the next generation of scientists. Helping students learn how to socialize in the research environment can increase their confidence, facilitate their development of critical thinking and analytical skills and ultimately forge relationships that can become long-lasting professional interactions. This webinar will:

• Identify successful strategies for mentors to serve learners, focusing on those underrepresented in biomedical research. 
• Articulate expectations for mentorship, including both mentor and mentee responsibilities.
• Outline approaches for learner empowerment in the mentoring relationship.
