Mentorship Malpractice
Fantastic summary of this JAMA article by @THilalMD. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam⦠#WomenInSTEMM #WomenInTech #InclusiveSTEMM
Replying to @THilalMD
However, mentor-mentee relationships are, by definition, unequal. Mentees are more vulnerable and more likely to disproportionately suffer in a dysfunctional relationship. The paper defines mentorship malpractice as behavior that puts a menteeβs academic career at risk.

βWe will never know how many promising scientific careers around the world have been brought to a premature end because young researchers felt they could not continue to work under a bullying senior figureβ @NatureNews
I am grateful for amazing teachers in #IndigenousSTEMM but our education systems donβt do enough to pass on this knowledge and #Respect.

Though we were great hunter-gatherers,we did more than that.We were farmers; developed aquaculture & preserved foods such as eels through smoking. We had our own medicines, we did brain surgery, long before @WEHI_research existed!
