THE ROLE OF MENTORSHIP IN ADVANCING CANCER RESEARCH AND CARE IN AFRICA

Abstract

Mentorship has been key in the growth of cancer research on the continent. In addition, mentorship also provides an opportunity to nurture the professional and career development of early career researchers.
This presentation is a compliation of reflections on the role that mentorship has had on the authors career progression as well as the opportunities that are available to leverage mentorship relationships to advance research on the African Continent.
The African Cancer Leaders Institute has been a catalyst of research over the years with impact in any fields in oncology.
