ECR Gig Trail

We set up the ECR Gig Trail as a way for ECR’s to give each other chances to visit and speak at different institutions – e.g. by organising a lunchtime seminar where a couple of visiting ECRs can talk about their work. Please sign up if you are interested in organising and/or giving a talk. You can also read this report of our first international gig trail talk - in New Zealand!!

What is an early career researcher?

Rather than have a formal definition we thought that individuals should decide whether they are an ECR. You might consider yourself to be an ECR if you are an undergraduate or postgraduate student, if you have recently completed or are studying for a PhD, or if you are new to this research field. If you would like to add to the 'what is an ECR' list, please email us.

SSM early career researcher sub-committee objectives

The aims of the SSM ECR sub-committee are to:

  1. Represent the views of ECRs to the SSM committee.

  2. Provide a point of call to ECRs wishing to become more involved with the SSM research community and to facilitate ECRs involvement in SSM conferences.

  3. Provide and facilitate peer-to-peer support amongst ECRs.
