Mentoring: disabilities
What is this about?
A mentor has a research student for his research group. Over the course of the semester, the student becomes seriously ill with a chronic disease. As a result, the student regularly misses experiments and falls behind on the research.
The mentor is in doubt what to do. He wants to be supportive of the student, but also has an obligation to the research sponsor.
In addition, the student is foreign and will lose his right to stay in the country if he loses his affiliation with the university.
