NRMN Mentoring Month Spotlight
Dr. Antentor Othrell Hinton, Jr. (AJ)
Rising Assistant Professor in the Department of Molecular Physiology and Biophysics and member of the Vanderbilt Diabetes Research and Training Center.
Describe your role in the Career Development Webinar series and tell us a little about your experience in that role.
"I have led the Career Development Webinar series and the Mentoring Month Webinar Series with my co-facilitator, Dr. Haysetta Shuler of Winston-Salem State University. Notably, each webinar has been incredibly inspiring and has allowed me the opportunity to grow as a mentor."
If someone called you and asked, “Why should I become involved with NRMN?” how would you respond?
"The NRMN is vital because it provides the essential knowledge, tools, and skills trainees and mentors need to succeed at their next career development stage. Additionally, NRMN also offers professional and personal support to facilitate success at each career stage. Above all, NRMN also provides quality mentoring and coaching toward greatly enhancing someone’s grantsmanship experience."

In August 2019, the Special Issue editors elicited our interest in publishing a series of papers from the NIH Diversity Consortium. Specifically, the papers would report results from the implementation of various research mentor and/or mentee training interventions at BUILD (Building Infrastructure Leading to Diversity) institutions using resources from the first phase of NRMN (National Research Mentoring Network).
We are very pleased to present this Special Issue consisting of seven papers plus an Introduction from NIGMS and an Overview by the Special Issue editors.

Nobel Laureate Robert Lefkowitz shares 10 golden rules gleaned from a half century of mentoring hundreds of research trainees.
Inside Higher Education

The most meaningful part of my professional career has come from mentoring young scholars and watching them develop. I have mentored more than 200 trainees, with a large percentage of them going on to enjoy highly successful careers in academe or industry. Many have won major research awards, and one has even received the Nobel Prize. Due to this track record, I have often been asked, How do you do it? What is your secret formula for producing generation after generation of standout scientists?
