CSEP Mentorship Award in Honour of Enzo Cafarelli Recipients
As a graduate student advisor, Enzo
went well beyond providing technical skills, knowledge, encouragement, and
motivation to complete a degree. His lab was the model of an ideal research
environment. It was organized, productive, and structured without being
inflexible. Students in Enzo’s lab were expected to work hard and to
function like a team and not a hierarchy. Just as importantly, Enzo
demonstrated the importance of balancing research and hard work with family,
friends, and life outside the lab. He was a mentor in every sense of the word,
acting as both an advisor and an advocate to his students and to young
investigators beginning their careers. At CSEP conferences, Enzo could be found
talking to students and new investigators at posters, in presentation halls,
and over a drink at the end of the day. Always willing to listen to a problem,
offer advice, and discuss new ideas, it was obvious that Enzo was a dedicated
mentor to the future scientists and educators of CSEP.
The purpose of the CSEP Mentorship Award in
Honour of Enzo Cafarelli is to annually recognize a Professor or Advisor in the
Exercise Science field for their dedication and mentorship to their students
and/or their faculty.
