Mentoring Circles

When you arrive at the workshop you will find that your nametag has a number below your name; this is your mentoring circle. You can also see who else is in your mentoring circle in the attached list. Be sure to seek out your circle members when you arrive at the workshop and at the welcome drinks to introduce yourself.

Mentoring circles have been developed to facilitate interaction and discussion among workshop attendees that may not have happened otherwise. You will note that your group consists of people from a range of institutions, research areas, and levels of research “age”.

It is our hope that the relationships you form with those in your group during our workshop continues throughout the workshop, and beyond.

Each circle will sit together at the workshop dinner and there are some small, additional tasks for everyone to undertake throughout the workshop.

1.       All– visit posters for members of your networking circle.

2.       Mid-late career researchers– introduce the early career researchers in your circle to at least one person you think they should know. 

3.       Early career researchers– ask mid-late career researchers in your circle about the greatest challenge faced in their career thus far, and how they overcame it.
