Mentorship

Who can mentor

Anyone who switches on Open to mentoring under Settings → Research. Mentors are ranked for you by how well their interests and methods overlap with the topics you enter, with a small preference for mid-career and senior researchers.

Asking

1. Mentorship → Find a mentor: enter the topics and methods you want help with, pick a mentor and Ask.
2. Write concrete, time-bound goals and how often you would like to meet; your time zone is shared for scheduling.
3. The mentor accepts or declines; you are notified either way and can ask someone else.

Working together

Active mentorships carry shared notes typed as goal, meeting, resource or note. Goals can be ticked off; both sides see everything. Either side can end the mentorship; the notes stay readable.
