The current goals of the Mentoring Committee are:
- To support proteome scientists, especially early-stage researchers, to achieve their goals
- To set up a registry of mentors and couple mentees to the right mentor
- Host (online) workshops to achieve the above
If you want to become a mentee or mentor, want to suggest a topic of interest for a workshop, or have a question about the committee please get in touch with us via mentoring@eupa.org!
Members of the Mentoring Committee:
Connie Jimenez
“At different stages in my career, I have had several informal and formal mentors, who helped me to navigate science and sometimes challenging situations in the organisation”. Through the activities of this committee, I would like to support the next generation of proteome researchers in their careers and help them to shape optimal work environment conditions.
Tamara Tomin
Working in (omics) research can be challenging at times. Let’s talk about it. We can share our experiences and learn from each other.
Maria Pavlou
Several times during our professional path we may find ourselves in the middle of a tunnel not able to see neither the start nor the end of it. Do not stay alone in the dark; team up with someone who can shed some light so you find your way again.
Maike Langini
We all love what we do but sometimes there are things that can interfere and make it hard for us to stay enthusiastic. You should always know it is not just you.
Jochen Schwenk
Managing our lives and careers can be complex and challenging. Sharing your experiences with someone outside your circle can bring some new perspective to your journey.
Marie Chion
We all have a role in making our community kind and caring. I believe that as soon as we start talking about our concerns and struggles, it gets better.
