Mentees will be matched with a mentor based on similar identities and research interests indicated in their application. Mentors are primarily graduate students and industry partners in a range of scientific fields. They are dedicated to helping their mentees throughout the symposium process and beyond. USSS-TC's goal is to create lasting relationships between mentors and mentees, providing mentees with someone to reach out to as they advance throughout their scientific journey, whether that be as a support while preparing graduate school applications or seeking advice while searching for a job.
