Mentoring Scientists to Students

To support the career development of women in science, the Weizmann Institute of Science has established a mentor program for women MSc students, graduate students, and postdocs to be matched with women scientists at the Institute. Mentees will receive individual support related to career development. 

The mentor program is led by Prof. Talia Volk, Dept. of Molecular Genetics.
