Please join us next Thursday for the STEM Education Seminar given by Dr. A. Kelly Lane. She will be presenting research entitled "Investigating Graduate Students' Career Mentorship Networks".

Kelly Lane is a Postdoctoral Research Associate working in the Couch Research Group in the School of Biological Sciences at UNL. Kelly's research interests are focused on improving STEM education through faculty professional development and teaching training beginning as early as graduate school. Currently, her focus is on the ways faculty communicate about teaching and with whom they communicate, as well as implementing and assessing initiatives to address the unique needs of first-generation college students in STEM. She has long-term interests in studying improvements to training graduate students in teaching as well as improving bioinformatics education. For this seminar she will give a practice job talk about using principles from social networks research to assess the career mentorship STEM graduate students seek and locate.
