What are some general resources to share with mentees?
Here is a short list of useful websites which might be of interest to mentees: Finding a microbiology degree program – US News and World Report (http://www.usnews.com/usnews/edu/college/tools/brief/cosearch_advanced_brief.php) and Petersons (http://www.petersons.com/GradChannel/code/search.asp?path=gr.fas.grad) offer in-depth search tools for identifying college and universities with microbiological science undergraduate majors and graduate degree programs. Learning more about NIHs minority programs (http://www.nigms.nih.gov/Minority/) The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (one of the National Institutes of Health) Division of Minority Opportunities in Research (MORE) administers research training programs aimed at increasing the number of minority biomedical and behavioral scientists. These programs include the MARC, MBRS, and Bridges diversity programs.
