Beyond "Who is your mentor?"
We often think of mentorship, which catalyzes success in the academic setting, in the singular, asking, “Who is your mentor?” In reality, most of what we do in medicine—whether caring for patients, conducting research, or educating trainees—happens in teams. We don't expect one person to possess all the requisite expertise in these scenarios, and mentoring is no different. JHM's editor-in-chief, Dr. Samir Shah, shares insights on building that cadre of mentors, focusing on the mentoring team and peer mentors.
