FAER is seeking nominations for the annual FAER Mentoring Excellence in Research Award.  This award was created to ensure that the value of outstanding mentors is recognized and to encourage, develop and retain these valuable individuals in our specialty.

The FAER Mentoring Excellence in Research Award recognizes mentorship rather than scientific accomplishment. Nominees must have mentored anesthesiologists or scientists who have worked in the U.S. and contributed significantly to the practice. The award is focused on the successful development of mentees, not the professional accomplishments of the mentor. Nominees should be superior mentors, seen as supporting the future of the specialty. 

An overview of the award and the nomination process and a nomination form are posted below. The nomination form and supporting materials are due by March 31, 2010. Please submit all nomination materials by email to Mary Schrandt, Programs Coordinator, at schrandt.mary@mayo.edu. Questions? Contact Mary Schrandt in the FAER Office at (507) 538-7883.
