MB&B Special Seminar: Erin Dolan, "The Dark Side Of Development: When Mentoring is Problematic & What To Do About It"

Erin Dolan is a professor of biochemistry and molecular biology and Georgia Athletic Association Professor of Innovative Science Education at the University of Georgia. As a graduate student in neuroscience at the University of California at San Francisco, she volunteered extensively in K-12 schools, which prompted her to pursue a career in biology education. She teaches introductory biology and her research group, the SPREE Lab (Social Psychology of Research Experiences and Education) and works to delineate the features of undergraduate and graduate research that influence students’ career decisions, including the influence of research mentorship. She served on the U.S. National Academies consensus committee on mentoring in STEMM. She co-authored a guidebook on designing and teaching course-based undergraduate research experiences as a more equitable and inclusive approach to undergraduate research. She also served for ten years as Editor-in-Chief of the biology education journal, CBE – Life Sciences Education.
