The ISSCD’s Global Mentee in Mentorship (M-in-M) Program
The unmet need
The objective
The M-in-M Programme emphasizes linkages between mentees and mentors in different parts of the world who would otherwise be unlikely to interact. Examples of fields that mentee-mentor linkages could address include academic and applied research, scientific education partnerships, health services delivery, food, drug and diagnostic development in academic, clinical, community and commercial settings. Preference will be given to mentees who will potentially have more than one mentor at their hosting venue/s spanning more than one discipline e.g. basic research, clinical research, clinical trials, clinical care, or other fields.
Mentees and mentors must be registered members of ISSCD.
Mentees are encouraged to source their Mentors but if they need assistance they may contact ISSCD for support using the online form.
The value of the grant from ISSCD is up to a maximum US $ 6000. Funds may be used for: travel, accommodation, subsistence, attendance of celiac disease meetings or conferences e.g. ICDS, or satellite meetings of major symposia in disciplines associated with celiac disease. The grant should normally be spent within two years of award.
Potential mentees and mentors should submit an application form with all associated documentation to info@isscd-global.org.
Please refer to the M-in-M programme grant terms and conditions for more information.
Administration and Funding
The M-in-M Programme is administered by ISSCD. All applications will be reviewed by the ISSCD Board and other potential peer reviewers. Further information can be found in the Guide for peer reviewers and the Peer review evaluation form.
