Mentoring

SGIM One-on-One Mentoring Program offers 2024 Annual Meeting registrants the opportunity to be matched with a mentor or mentee based on shared interests and career paths. It’s a great way to network, learn from one another, ask for career advice, or ask for input on your SGIM24 presentation. 

New this year! We are pleased to offer targeted one-on-one mentor matching for general medicine research fellows and residents interested in a general medicine research fellowship.
