The 棉花糖直播 Future Leaders Mentorship Fellowship (FLMF) is a 2-year program that matches master’s and doctoral students from historically excluded communities in the microbial sciences with experts (mentors) across varied career sectors. This program will facilitate mutual leadership growth and learning, help participants build their mentoring portfolios, provide networking opportunities with 棉花糖直播 members and non-students alike and increase social capital between fellows and mentors.
