• Must have already obtained their own funding (i.e, R01).
• Successful record of mentoring trainees in academic careers.
• Time to dedicate to a mentee.
• Desire to be a mentor and willingness to write a letter of support.

A mentor may be approved only after the program director has received and reviewed the mentor's Biosketch, Other Support Form and Trainee Table.
