ABSTRACT
The pursuit of knowledge, curiosity about the natural world, and a drive to better the human condition are several of the many motivations that encourage someone to further their education in the biological sciences. However noble the intentions, success in an academic graduate program, and perhaps more importantly, in the career options that follow, is not guaranteed. While it is often said that a trainee needs support from their mentors and network to succeed, the Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology Early Career Committee has observed, through our many interactions, both face to face and in the virtual space, that many trainees do not appreciate that building their mentoring network is an active process, and the trainee has more agency in the relationship than perhaps they perceive. In the article below, we discuss our views on building relationships and identifying mentors at different levels and for different purposes. We also highlight events hosted by the Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology Early Career Committee at Vascular Discoveries, Scientific Sessions, and in the virtual space that can help you at the critical career stage.
