UBC Acquires Another Epistemologist

I was delighted to hear this morning that Masashi Kasaki, a recent graduate of the University of Calgary and student of Jeremy Fantl, has been awarded a Government of Canada Post-Doctoral Research Fellowship to work with me at UBC for a year.  Masashi is working on a bunch of very interesting issues surrounding epistemic contextualism.

This will be my first experience of officially supervising a postdoc.   I gather that my formal duties are minimal, but I want to do a good job in general.   Any advice from those with recent experience of supervising and/or being postdocs?
