Congratulations to all the recipients of the 2021-2022 Science Mentoring Awards<\/strong> from the Office of Graduate Education (OGE). Especially to these three members of BCBP dept & labs: Odessa Goudy in Kuhlman lab, and Nicole Arruda and Audra Bryan Ph.D. in Jill Dowen lab!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Mentorship is a key component of academic science, and it comes in many forms. In addition to \u201cofficial\u201d mentors, we receive mentorship from peers, labmates, course instructors, dissertation committee members, and so many others. To honor mentorship in our community at 大象传媒, this year\u2019s mentoring awards were open to all nominees \u2013 faculty, grad students, postdocs, staff, postbacs, and anyone else.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven though she wasn\u2019t my peer mentor, she still occasionally reached out to me via email during my first year to check in with how rotations and classes were going\u2026 I really enjoyed receiving these \u2018check-in\u2019 emails from her because my first year was very tough due to the pandemic. It was nice to have someone check in on me completely unprompted.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cNicole\u2019s efforts really set the tone of the lab from always having a positive attitude, working hard, demonstrating best practices at the bench and in meetings, and making real connections with every individual. This creates a welcoming and inclusive environment in the lab for everyone.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

<\/p>\n
\u201cShe was always happy and willing to help me through misunderstandings and tough experimental scenarios.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
\u201cShe knew when it was better to offer more hands-on help, and when it was better for me to work something out on my own.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
