ASM Future Leaders Mentorship Program Fellow
American Society for Microbiology
Estados Unidos, 2024
The ASM Future Leaders Mentorship Fellowship (FLMF) is a 2-year program that matches master’s and doctoral students from historically excluded communities in the microbial sciences with experts (mentors) across varied career sectors. This program will facilitate mutual leadership growth and learning, help participants build their mentoring portfolios, provide networking opportunities with ASM members and non-students alike and increase social capital between fellows and mentors.
