ECRs and PhD students

The network also commits to put additional effort into the engagement of PhD candidates and early career researchers. The network addresses the needs of doctoral students as well as postdocs. It will organise suitable measures (e.g. support with specific funds), offers advice, launches and coordinates initiatives and projects for the promotion of early career researchers. An additional advisory activity is aimed at young researchers, who are before or after the next academic career step. The specific tools include:

  • Regular exchange of information on ongoing opportunities for the promotion of young scientists.
  • One-on-one mentoring of researchers facing difficulties during Covid-19 – matching PhD Students and ECRs with senior researchers.
  • Allocated slots and funding at panels and events.
  • Additional promotion activity through the team’s networks and social media to ensure wider reach.
