The purpose of the resident mentoring program is to mentor residents in research, academic neurology, education, international health, public policy or private practice. The program begins during the PGY2 year when residents choose their mentor. Mentors will meet with the resident at least four times per year for the duration of residency. Goals of the program will depend on the specific interests of the resident, but can include:
- the development of a structured mentoring plan
- career development
- work on a research project
- assisting in making post-residency plans
- career development
