Conditions studied: Research Mentoring Skills

In brief

The research proposed in this collaborative application Implementation and Evaluation of Formal Training for Mentors of K-Series Mentored Career Development Awards will uniquely study mentor training in the biomedical academic community. The randomized controlled trial will be conducted at 15 Clinical and Translational Science Award sites over a 21-month period with six months for baseline data collection, nine months for the intervention, three months for follow-up, and three months for analysis. The multi-site trial will be conducted to determine whether the resultant skills-focused, case-based, mentor training program can improve the mentoring skills of K series mentors.
