One-to-one mentoring for female postdoctoral researchers

A central feature of one-to-one mentoring is the discussions between mentees and mentors at regular intervals, approximately every 4-6 weeks. The mentors are professors at the University of Göttingen that are active in fields of research suited to the needs of the selected mentees. In self-organized meetings that generally last between 1-2 hours, mentees are given the opportunity to discuss their questions and problems in a supportive environment. The mentor shares valuable knowledge and experience with mentees, guiding them through professional and personal decision making processes. The collaboration with mentors take place within a framework programme.
