Virtual Mentoring: Two Adaptive Models for Supporting Early‐career Simulation Investigators in the Era of Social Distancing

Abstract

Early‐career simulation investigators identify limited mentorship as a common barrier to disseminating scholarship and launching a successful academic career in emergency medicine (EM). Conferences often bridge this gap, but the COVID‐19 pandemic has forced their indefinite delay. Virtual solutions are needed to capitalize on the breadth of national simulation research experts and grow mentorship in a postpandemic world.
