The 2020 Nature Research Awards for Mentoring in Science recognized three researchers working in Israel. Neta Erez, a cancer biologist at Tel Aviv University, and Tal Pupko, a molecular biologist also at Tel Aviv University, shared the mid-career mentoring achievement award. Hanah Margalit, a bioinformatician at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, won the award for lifetime achievement in mentoring.
The winners have much in common beyond their shared home nation. Each sees mentorship as a fundamental part of their role as a scientist, and all are eager to offer advice to other principal investigators (PIs) who want to improve their mentoring skills.
The winners’ efforts to inspire and motivate their teams are clearly effective. The materials provided to support their nominations — from colleagues, and current and former students — brim with gratitude and admiration.
