An essential part of scientific training is learning to communicate new findings in manuscripts and theses. But access to scientific writing training, mentoring, and support varies widely, and many early career scientists report a need for more intensive help in developing their skills. This gap in mentoring and skill development negatively impacts the self-efficacy and career progression of those scientists who lack access to adequate support. As organizations that serve the scientific community, the Genetics Society of America and BioKansas have partnered to fill this gap through developing and implementing a mentored scientific writing program with generous funding support from the Burroughs Wellcome Fund.
