We were thrilled to present Mentoring in Times of Crisis, a special lecture by Dr. Christine Pfund on October 6, 2025, commemorating the launch of the Faculty Development Initiative. You can watch a recording of the event here (UCSF access required).
Our Vision
Mentoring is a shared responsibility. Faculty, postdocs, students, and the institution all play a role in cultivating an environment, climate, culture, and community where every member is set up to succeed.
The Faculty Development Initiative strives to ensure that our faculty members have the training, tools, community, and time they need to meet their mentoring responsibilities. Concurrently, the initiative supports students and postdocs as mentees, strengthening their capacity to navigate mentoring relationships skillfully and advance toward their career goals.
