This free, one-day event is designed to support the next generation of health and medicine researchers in the social sciences to conduct and promote impactful research. The event will bring together doctoral students and early career researchers, experienced academic colleagues, and external partners to engage with issues pertinent to building a career within the social study of health and illness. The aim is to provide doctoral students and early career researchers with guidance and support for their present and future research endeavours - as well as offering an important networking opportunity. The day will orientate around four workshops led by experts in the associated fields on the following topics:
- Negotiating data collection
- Funding and grants
- Publishing and disseminating findings
- Public engagement and research impact
The workshops will be open and interactive to allow for issues pertinent to attendees to direct the guidance and support available to them. Each workshop responds to an area of knowledge and experience which is fundamental during/post-PhD. By attending this event, doctoral students and early career researchers will gain insight and make connections which could be helpful for the completion of their doctoral research and/or making an effective and productive transition to post-doctoral/early-career research.
To be eligible for consideration for this event and to be considered for a travel bursary of up to £50 (three are available), please email Oliver Williams ([log in to unmask]) and/or Gareth Thomas ([log in to unmask]) with a short biography of around 50-100 words that outlines your current academic status and your research interests (please also state your dietary requirements). Bursary recipients will be announced after all places for the event have been allocated.
