The NPA is pleased to announce the Postdoc Leadership Mentoring Project, sponsored by the NPA and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. This innovative program seeks to connect experienced leaders in the postdoctoral community with individuals and institutions interested in establishing postdoc offices and/or associations at their home institutions. Experienced leaders will serve as mentors to those forming new organizations or working to revive past organizations.
Project participants met their mentor/mentee for the first time at the 2007 NPA Annual Meeting in Berkeley, California. Their attendance has been supported by a travel grant award sponsored by the NPA, the Sloan Foundation (U.S.), and the Burroughs Wellcome Fund (Canada).
