at the UA, and how we can better support faculty in general. We will start with candid table discussions and then report out to the larger group. The feedback gathered through these discussions will dictate the programming and resources offered for the remainder
of the academic year. Tricia Serio, Department Head of Molecular and Cellular Biology, will briefly discuss how a peer mentoring group provided her with vital support for her work, life and career. Attendees will have a chance to form such groups by rank
and discipline.
