BSA Research Matchmaking – research mentor scheme
The research mentor scheme has been set up to provide guidance, support, and expertise to BSA members who are new to research or seeking to advance their research careers. The scheme pairs experienced researchers, known as mentors, with less experienced individuals, known as mentees, to facilitate professional and academic growth.
We can provide mentorship to help you develop through the different levels of involvement. We have mentors who are experienced clinical academics, and mentors who are experienced clinical research delivery leaders so help you develop your own research or develop delivery leadership.
If you would like a mentor please fill in the form below. A member of the RDG will get in touch to have a brief chat about your mentoring needs, and to start the match making process.
Guidance for mentees and mentors
Before starting mentorship, either as a mentor or mentee it is important to have a good understanding of what to mentoring is (and is not), and how to get the most from mentoring. The NIHR and the Academy of Medical Sciences have produced some excellent resources that you may find useful.
