Fostering the Next Generation of Researchers: a Sustainable Mentoring Program for Early Career Toxicologists in Scientific Abstract Review. J Med Toxicol 2023; 19:224-227. [PMID: 36879004 PMCID: PMC10050293 DOI: 10.1007/s13181-023-00938-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2023] [Revised: 02/14/2023] [Accepted: 02/23/2023] [Indexed: 03/08/2023] Open
Abstract
The presentation of abstracts at scientific meetings is an important step in the dissemination of scientific discovery. Most scientific meetings recruit volunteer experts to evaluate and score submitted abstracts to determine which ones qualify for presentation. Reviewing an abstract is an important service to one's specialty, but there is typically no formal training or required instruction during medical toxicology fellowship on scientific abstract scoring. In order to provide structured training in abstract review, the American College of Medical Toxicology (ACMT) Research Committee launched the Annual Scientific Meeting (ASM) Abstract Review Mentor program in 2021. The goals of this program were to train fellows how to score scientific abstracts and provide them with new mentor connections to toxicologists outside of their training program. After evaluating 3 years of data from participating fellows-in-training and faculty mentors, we conclude that ACMT's Abstract Review Mentor program was successful in training future reviewers and fostering external mentorship relationships. All participants reported their experience in this program will change how they submit future abstracts to scientific meetings, help their future service as an abstract reviewer, and motivate their involvement in other specialty-related research activities. Implementing an abstract review training program is sustainable and a vital strategy for enhancing the dissemination of scientific discovery and training the next generation of medical toxicology researchers.
