PIER Community

Center Identity and Common Vision

 

REMAT Core Values

 

These core values, are the foundation for PIER initiatives, which include the prioritization of safety, the upholding of uncompromised ethical standards, the promotion of open communication and respect for diverse perspectives, a commitment to inspiration and continuous learning, the fostering of a shared vision, recognition of the strength derived from embracing diversity, and the cultivation of a collaborative "we" ethos that deflects praise onto the team rather than individual recognition. Our common center vision has been actualized through a comprehensive set of activities that foster diversity, equity, and inclusion.

 

Near-Peer Mentorship

 

REMAT connects each Next-Gen Researchers with a senior investigator mentor (different from creating valuable connections). This approach not only facilitates meaningful connections but also provides opportunities for engaging with diverse REMAT faculty, enhancing relationships, and fostering community.

Individual Development Plans (IDPs)

 

REMAT Next-Gen Researchers are encouraged to create IDPs to guide their academic and career journeys, with faculty mentors providing guidance and support. The establishment of mentorship connections fosters mutual learning and growth, promoting a culture of shared knowledge.
