Abstract
En 中文
The authors present a poem entitled The Mentor, which deals with the term mentor from its early use as an ordinary male name to its semantic evolution into the concept of a guide (thanks to Homer's Odyssey). The poem is essentially an ode to a mentor by one of their mentees. What we can learn from the final lines of the poem is that this is a story of success, both human and professional. Hopefully, this story will inspire aspiring physiology mentors and their mentees. The poem was the subject of a reading, after which several academic colleagues shared with the authors what a good mentor should and should not be. Their reflections and insights generated word clouds that show at a glance the major trends and differences that emerged among the professors and postgraduates who participated in this initiative.
