Participate as MENTOR in Neuromatch Academy Neuromatch Academy returns this year with twice as many students and TAs participating in twice as many courses. If you are faculty or postdoc with some experience, please sign up to be a mentor for the Computational Neuroscience (syllabus <https://github.com/NeuromatchAcademy/course-content>) and/or the Deep Learning course (syllabus <https://github.com/NeuromatchAcademy/course-content-dl>). NMA is unique in reaching enthusiastic students from all over the world, most of whom cannot afford a traditional summer school. NMA 2020 reached students from ~70(!) countries. This year we have students from >100 !!! Mentors provide guidance and feedback on 3-week long projects that students complete in groups of 4-6. You will be algorithmically matched with students that have similar research interests to you.The mentorship happens in 4-5 sessions of 30-60 minutes each, leading to a time commitment of up to 5 hours per group. Mentors can take on 1-4 groups. Beginner groups are encouraged to use project templates, such as the ones here (link <https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1v7fuzi9Y9RV12CysMBi5rxZKhjnWD5Js29UDEvmbzNA/edit#slide=id.gdd7cac0a4c_2_0>). Please consider contributing a project template, by simply adding a slide to the public google doc. Mentoring is relatively easy because you don’t need to prepare anything. Nonetheless, your feedback is extremely valuable to the students, who are taking their first steps in neuroscience / deep learning. We also encourage you to provide career advice, and optionally set up meetings with TAs after the summer school. Our collective effort to teach and mentor these young scientists and engineers pays off in the long-term: their positive experience at NMA inspires them to consider careers in our research fields. The application for mentors can be found below. Course starts July 5th, so please apply soon! https://portal.neuromatchacademy.org/
