Welcome to the Academic Mentoring Program Platform for Postdocs

Supporting postdoctoral researchers in shaping successful academic careers

Welcome to the dedicated platform of the Academic Mentoring Program for Postdocs launched by the Career Development Service for Scientists (CARE) at the Institut Pasteur. This space is designed for the selected mentees and mentors participating in the six-month mentoring program running in 2026.

The program connects postdoctoral researchers with experienced academic mentors (Principal Investigators or permanent researchers at Institut Pasteur) to support their professional development and academic growth. Through regular monthly meetings, mentees will receive personalized guidance on topics such as career planning, research independence, funding strategies, networking, leadership, and visibility in the scientific community.




This platform serves as your central hub for:
- Managing your mentoring partnership and scheduling meetings.
- Accessing guidelines, tools, and resources to structure mentoring interactions.
- Sharing reflections and tracking progress throughout the program.

Rooted in Institut Pasteur’s values, the Academic Mentoring Program for Postdocs seeks to foster an inclusive, ethical, and supportive environment where postdoctoral researchers can grow, gain confidence, and define the next steps in their academic journey.
