Meet Yiran Hou, 2024 Scientific Teaching Fellow

"This program has helped me develop the mindset and skillset for teaching. It has also allowed me to see the research component of teaching."

Meet Beth Meyerand, ARMP Facilitator

"It is incredibly gratifying to hear from participants that what they learned in ARMP has made a tremendously positive impact in how they mentor—that the concepts they learned were totally new to them and are now indispensable."

Meet Darcie Moore, ARMP Facilitator

"Every time I facilitate ARMP, I get to review and remind myself of different aspects of mentoring to consider. I feel like I take something back to my lab with me from discussions with each cohort."
