APRA, Missouri/Kansas Chapter
Mentor Program
We will link research professionals based on locality and level of experience, and they will
correspond one-on-one for the following year.  Communication can be via email,
telephone, face-to-face meetings, or any combination - it's up to the mentor and mentee.  
After a year, we will switch up the mentor/mentee assignments to keep things fresh!
Researchers of all levels are encouraged to join.  Sign up now for a great learning and
networking opportunity!
