Mentoring

Read Chapter 7 of the Steneck text (Links to an external site.). Prepare 2-3 paragraphs that address the following:

1. Address each of the questions at the end of Chapter 7 of the Steneck text. Your answers can be brief.

2. Imagine that, five or ten years from now, you are running a laboratory similar to the one you are in now and that you supervise graduate students and/or postdocs. How would you mentor them? Are there ways you would mentor them that are different from the ways you are currently mentored? What forces might cause you to not mentor your future graduate students and/or postdocs in the ways you now view to be desirable?
