Congratulations to Dr. Bernier\u00a0for winning the 2016 Outstanding Mentor Award!\u00a0Raphe won through\u00a0the outstanding supporting\u00a0of graduate students, research staff, and senior research team members! \u00a0 Thank you Raphe, for all that you do to continually support and mentor us, you truly deserve this award!<\/p>\n

Some excerpts from his nomination letters:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

“Raphe currently serves as mentor for 31 individuals in our lab, including 9 undergraduate research volunteers, 7 full-time research assistants and coordinators, 7 graduate students, 3 postdoctoral students, 1 senior clinical psychologist, and 1 junior faculty member. In querying the lab to participate in this nomination, the response was immediate and unanimously positive. This is exemplary of his unique and important role in all of our professional development.”<\/p>\n

“Raphe’s philosophy to mentorship comes through in all of his interactions with his mentees. He believes that a productive team is a team that is happy, and he fosters a positive work environment by making sure that the individual needs of his team members are met… Raphe does not subscribe to the traditional values of restricting authorship to senior researchers, instead crediting and encouraging students and younger researchers to contribute for authorship (he says “we learned how to share in kindergarten”).”<\/p>\n

“It is extremely rare to find a person who has mastered the tricky art form of balancing an ambitious vision for scientific productivity while remaining steadfast in creating time and opportunities for others to ensure the success of those around them. Raphe is this type of leader. Despite the immense demands of overseeing a productive lab at the UW and being the Clinical Director of the Seattle Children’s Autism Center, Raphe’s genuine desire to make time to support us as we pursue and cultivate our own interests and skills is uncompromising. Raphe’s door is always open; he never shies away from a chance to meet over a challenging dataset or over a beer to discuss professional development and life decisions.”<\/p>\n
