The goal of the Mentoring Program is promotion of academic and personal growth of the young trauma and acute care surgeon by providing extramural mentorship over a 1-year period. For more information about the EAST Mentoring Program, please visit the EAST Mentoring Program section of the website. While our call for Mentee applications for the 2016-2017 EAST Mentoring Program is now closed, we are planning towards our 2017-2018 EAST Mentoring Program, which will be gearing up shortly before the 30th EAST Annual Scientific Assembly, January 10-14, 2017 in Hollywood, Florida.
