NCI is accepting applications for a new pilot mentorship program as part of the Research to Reality (R2R) online community of practice. The purpose of the program is to help cancer control practitioners develop the knowledge, understanding, and skills needed to identify, adapt, implement, and evaluate evidence-based cancer control and prevention interventions in community or clinical settings.
The 12-month mentorship program is designed as a distance-learning opportunity that will link mentees with experienced public health professionals through in-person meetings and training sessions, video conferencing, e-mail, and webinars. With guidance from their mentors and ongoing technical assistance and training from NCI, mentees will work on year-long cancer control and prevention projects relevant to their current jobs.
The mentor–mentee teams will also share their work and lessons learned with the R2R online community through discussion forums, cyber-seminars, and other interactive features as a way to extend the program’s reach.
The application process is competitive, and a maximum of six mentees will be selected to participate. More information and applications are available on the mentorship page of the R2R Web site. The application deadline is June 30.
