07:00		How To Coach Mentees Who Have Little to No Prior Knowledge of MRI View Presentation Video Yu-Chieh Kao Keywords: Transferable skills: Research coordination Among contemporary laboratory personnel, particularly the newbies, mentees possessing limited familiarity with MR basis and techniques are frequently encountered. The prior coaching of these mentees in fundamental MRI principles is essential for effective communication during practical MRI experiments. The current talk demonstrates the combination of multimedia tools and interactive group discussions to foster student engagement in MRI education. Moreover, integrating problem-based learning methodologies in educational courses empowers our mentees to independently navigate experimental design, data acquisition, and result interpretation. By embracing these strategies, mentees can cultivate proficient application skills and foster critical thinking capabilities in MRI.
07:30		Communications/Corporations Between M.D. & Ph.D. View Presentation Video Hanzhang Lu Keywords: Transferable skills: Research coordination, Transferable skills: Project management I will discuss my experiences on the development of collaborations between PhD scientists and MD clinicians. As a PhD, it is important for me to first determine the type of MD clinicians I am interacting with. The next step is to read the background literature on the specific disease that you are collaborating on. That way you and your collaborative MDs will have some common language. It is also important to develop some "trust" between the PhD and MD collaborators, and this will take some time. It is also important to distribute credits, papers and grants, in a fair fashtion.
