Faculty Mentors
To train great scientists, VIBRE expects our faculty to provide students with great mentorship. There is no one definition for great mentorship; ideally, every VIBRE student will find an exciting match in scientific interest, lab environment, lead mentor, and external mentors, all of which will both challenge and support them through their scientific training. Our training faculty comprises over 350 thesis mentors, spanning the range of biomedical disciplines at our medical school.
