The NIH FELCOM Mentoring Subcommittee prepared a survey for distribution in the Spring of 2001 to a randomly selected group of 750 (out of a possible 3100) fellows. The questions of the survey cover several categories that we think are important for a good mentoring relationship:

• Defining mentor relations
  
• Scientific direction and independence
  
• Supervisor access and availability
  
• Recognition in publications and lab
  
• Training and career development
  
• Overall quality of mentoring
