A Pilot Project to Promote Research Competency in Medical Students Through Journal Clubs: Mixed Methods Study

A Pilot Project to Promote Research Competency in Medical Students Through Journal Clubs: Mixed Methods Study

The primary aim of this research initiative is to stimulate and mentor students within these journal clubs to undertake their own research projects, leveraging a structured program replete with experienced near-peer guidance and comprehensive information access. The program’s ultimate objective is the inception and publication of fully student-run studies and papers in peer-reviewed journals, marrying theoretical knowledge with research fundamentals in a hands-on setting.

Benefits of Mentoring in Oncology Education for Mentors and Mentees: Pre-Post Interventional Study of the British Oncology Network for Undergraduate Societies' National Oncology Mentorship Scheme

Benefits of Mentoring in Oncology Education for Mentors and Mentees: Pre-Post Interventional Study of the British Oncology Network for Undergraduate Societies' National Oncology Mentorship Scheme

Many benefits to mentoring have been reported for both the mentor and the mentee. The mentor may benefit from personal development, experience in teaching, building one’s own portfolio, and personal satisfaction [12]. Mentees may benefit from participation in research, development of professionalism, and exposure to a particular specialty or career path, among others [12].

The Push-Pull Mentoring Model: Ensuring the Success of Mentors and Mentees

In this paper, we describe a Push-Pull Mentoring Model (PPMM) that focuses on a “shared responsibility for the mentor-mentee relationship that is mutually, though not necessarily equally, supportive of both individuals’ career goals with mentees pushing mentors up and facilitating opportunities in their realm of influence, including but not limited to sponsorship, while mentors are simultaneously pulling them up” [1].

A 4-Week Electronic-Mentoring Employment Intervention for Youth With Physical Disabilities: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

A 4-Week Electronic-Mentoring Employment Intervention for Youth With Physical Disabilities: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

Therefore, a potential advantage of electronic mentoring (e-mentoring) is that it is in a format that allows for flexibility in matching a mentor with a mentee and also has asynchronous communication [22]. E-mentoring can help to overcome inequities and provide opportunities to underserved groups such as youth with disabilities [14,15].
