HeLTI Early Career Researcher and Trainee Seminar Series

The HeLTI Capacity Building Working Group / HeLTI Trainee and Early Career Researcher (ECR) Seminar organizers are calling for seminar speakers!

Please don’t be fooled by the name “ECR”, it is a place for everyone! This seminar series is a student, postdoc, junior, mid-career and senior researcher-centred event. It provides an informal platform to recent/ongoing research projects across the HeLTI sites. It is also a great opportunity for everyone to learn from each other, and students, postdocs, junior, mid-career and senior researchers can all benefit from this event.

The format is flexible. Whereas so far, we often have one presenter in each webinar, we are also keen on having multiple shorter presentations in one webinar. We also value e.g. a supervisor presenting together with their trainee.

If you are interested in presenting, please download and complete a presenter information formand send it to the HeLTI Office.

We look forward to hearing about new and ongoing research within the HeLTI Consortium via these seminars!
