Neurodegeneration Challenge Network (NDCN) Mentors
One of CZI’s goals is to empower early career researchers to pursue bold ideas and to take risks within a supportive and collaborative environment. We value the critical role that mentors and mentorship play in helping individuals rise to their full personal and professional potential. We created the Neurodegeneration Challenge Network (NDCN) Mentors program to help our early career grantees navigate this critical stage of their careers. We are enormously grateful for the time, energy, and expertise our NDCN mentors provide to our grantees and the Network at large.
