Toxicology MSDT

MENTORS 2017-2018

Meet the 2017-2018 Mentors 

Sixteen mentors were selected to the ToxMSDT program from different settings: academia, industry and government. Mentors give presentations on their career paths into toxicology and on skills they use currently at work. They interact with mentees through group roundtable discussions. Group activities such as campus tours, meals, and mixers are used to build relationships among mentors and mentees. They also organize a shadowing experience for their mentees. 
​
Benefits to mentors:
  • Personal satisfaction
  • Helping NIH achieve its noble goals of a diverse workforce
  • Travel support to the SOT annual meeting
