about the AIM-AHEAD Research Fellowship Mentoring Program

AIM-AHEAD Mentors

The AIM-AHEAD Research Fellowship is recruiting experts and professionals to mentor our third cohort of the AIM-AHEAD Research Fellowship. This fellowship will engage a group of early-career researchers from underrepresented populations to actively participate in biomedical research that involves the use of AI/ML methodologies on biomedical health records.

The AIM-AHEAD Research Fellowship Mentoring Program connects current fellows from the Research Fellowship Program with AIM-AHEAD Mentors and provides fellows with valuable field expertise.

All Research Fellows in Cohort 3 will have one AIM-AHEAD Mentor that will be chosen through the AIM-AHEAD Research Fellowship Mentoring Program. The AIM-AHEAD Mentors will be selected from a pool of AIM-AHEAD Mentor applicants. Mentor applications are now open and the deadline to apply is October 11, 2024. All selected mentors should be notified by October 27, 2024.
