Abstract
Success in graduate education and research is dependent on the relationships you establish throughout. The mentor/mentee relationships you experience can provide solace as you work through the pressures of this endeavor. Join us for a conversation to discuss the influencing dynamics that shape these relationships. We will build on our understanding of these dynamics to develop strategies to build and maintain healthy relationships.
