CERC Fellows Mentoring program
CSIRO Early Research Career (CERC) Fellows work alongside leading researchers on projects of national and global significance. They undertake independent research and are mentored by senior scientists, while being given access to generous personal development and learning opportunities.
In the section below, we have listed the profiles of our CERC Fellows who are looking for external mentors. If you are interested in volunteering as a mentor, please use the following steps to help set up your partnership.
- Read the profiles below to learn about their research and their career aspirations.
- Select who you would be interested in mentoring, based on similar interests, experience and relevant skills.
- Contact alumni@csiro.au and let us know a bit more about yourself and why you are keen for this mentoring partnership
- We will facilitate an introduction, ask you to sign the CERC Fellows mentoring agreement and help get you started.
CERC Fellows who are interested in listing their profiles should contact alumni@csiro.au
We recommend that both mentor and mentee use the CSIRO Mentoring guide. There is no long term commitment, we appreciate any help and advice that you can give, but you have the option of extending and continuing your mentoring partnership if it suits you both.

Roshan Regmi
Area of research: Functional Soil Biology
Research project details: My project is looking at how microbiome assemble and function in different types of soils in response to host plants. I am applying different omics techniques such as metagenomics, transcriptomics including sRNA omics, and metabolomics to answer some of burning questions in rhizosphere biology.
