Cultivating mentorship, cooperation, and community during COVID-19 and beyond

Abstract

Over the past year, Cell Stem Cell has introduced early-career researchers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent closures to our readers. One year since our first introductions, we've invited several participants to reflect on their experiences and key issues. In this Story, Salah Elias talks about the importance of mentorship, support, and community, and new platforms to facilitate connections between early career researchers.
