Health Equity by Design for Inclusive Excellence
This talk is led by the office of Advancing Mentoring and the Professoriate, Inclusive Excellence, Speaker: Stephanie Sandoval-Pistorius
Postdoctoral Scholar, Starr Lab, University of California, San FranciscoParkinson’s disease (PD), the second most common age-dependent neurodegenerative disorder in the United States. 10-15% of PD cases are linked to known genetic mutations, of which glucocerebrosidase (GBA), leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2), and parkin (PRKN) gene mutations are most common. Each of these genotypes have slight differences in disease manifestation, most notably concerning cognitive decline. Interestingly, up to 30% of PD patients receiving deep brain stimulation (DBS), an effective treatment for PD, have a monogenic form of PD (mPD). Studies comparing mPD and sporadic PD (sPD) suggest that DBS outcomes vary based on genotype. Genotype-specific neurophysiology underlying divergent DBS responses is not understood. Individuals with mPD implanted with bi-directional DBS systems capable of…

Health Equity by Design for Inclusive Excellence
Presented by the Aoki Center for Critical Race and Nation Studies at UC Davis
Introduction by Professor Kevin R. Johnson, Director of the Aoki Center
The nationwide attacks on diversity, equity, and inclusion in higher education have dramatically escalated in the current administration, and universities that were once DEI’s biggest champions are increasingly laying DEI initiatives to rest. But let it not be without a eulogy. Where some see the so-called end of the DEI era as a retreat from politics to neutrality, King Hall Professor Brian Soucek argues that neutrality is a myth, especially when it comes to questions about who should benefit from the teaching and research that universities exist to support.

Clinical and Translational Science Center (CTSC)
One critical element of an effective mentoring relationship is a shared understanding of what each person expects from the relationship. Problems in a mentoring relationship often arise from misunderstandings about expectations. Importantly, expectations change over time so frequent reflection and clear communication is needed to maintain a collaborative relationship.
Good communication is a key element of any relationship and a mentoring relationship is no exception. As mentors, it is not enough to say that we know good communication when we see it. Rather, it is critical that mentors reflect upon and identify specific characteristics of effective communication and take time to practice communication skills.
Target Audience: Designed for faculty mentoring junior faculty or fellows but open to all faculty.

Supporting Work-Life Synergy, Recognizing Differences and Seizing Opportunities
Successful mentoring relationships include consideration of the complementary roles of work and family/personal life, for the mentee, while also maintaining proper boundaries. This session will introduce mentors to exercises intended to increase comfort and skill in considering mentee’s challenges related to considerations of work demands and family/personal life that are commonly encountered by the early career research academic. We also introduce the idea that there may be opportunities for synergy between work and personal life. We will also discuss how to recognize differences between mentors and mentees in regard to work styles, skills, disciplinary expertise, personal and cultural backgrounds and how to foster a respectful environment where everyone can do their best learning and create the highest quality of research.

Clinical and Translational Science Center (CTSC)
Professional Development, Team Science, and Fostering Independence
The ultimate goal of most mentoring relationships is to enable the mentee to identify and achieve some academic and professional outcomes after the training period. Non-research professional development activities are sometimes seen as secondary to the core business of doing research, but are often critically important to identifying and successfully meeting the mentee’s long-term career objectives, as well as to the research itself.
It is increasingly recognized that team science approaches may be needed to solve highly complex health science problems. This session will introduce participants to resources developed to prevent and address common problems that occur in conducting team science research, particularly issues encountered by mentees who may be working with more than one mentor.
An important goal in any mentoring relationship is helping the mentee become independent; yet defining what an independent mentee knows and can do is often…
