Does my project mentor need to be a UWSOM faculty member?
CTR pathway research projects must have a UWSOM faculty mentor. If a prospective research project mentor is not a UWSOM faculty member, then a project will need a co-mentor who holds a UWSOM faculty appointment. The UWSOM co-mentor will assist in ensuring that the project meets the requirements of the III Discovery option and the CTR pathway. Medical student research directors and UWSOM faculty teaching the CTR pathway courses are potentially co-mentors for these projects.
