Polonium Mentoring 2022
In 2022 we connected aspiring Polish student researchers with more experienced colleagues.
In the first, pilot edition of the programme, the Mentors were at a PhD or postdoc level and Mentees were Polish undergraduate or master’s students based in the UK.
How was the programme structured?
We had 20 Mentor-Mentee pairs. The pairs were matched based on mentoring goals, relevant skills, and research disciplines. This mentoring round lasted between December 2022 and June 2023.
