Mentor Award
The Mentor Award recognizes an OHBM member for their leadership in developing early career researchers including undergraduates, graduates and post-doctoral trainees. The OHBM Mentor Award is based on the training experiences and success of the nominee’s mentees, not the mentor’s personal career achievements. For the purpose of award, mentoring is defined as the process of providing guidance and support to promote mentees’ career development. The key roles of the mentor include, but are not limited to, providing:
- Intellectual growth and development
- Career development
- Collegiality and building community through the generosity of acknowledgement and recognition
Award Criteria:
- Must be an OHBM member in good standing.
- Must provide proof of consistent and meaningful mentoring.
- Nominators must be mentees of the nominee or colleagues who have personal knowledge of the nominee’s mentoring efforts.
- Must promote diversity and inclusivity in their mentoring efforts.
Requirements:
- 1 letter from the nominator.
