Registration open for researcher education and careers meeting

Unpacking and exploring researcher communication: implications for inquiry into ECR experience will take place on 30 September – 2 October 2018 at the University of Copenhagen in Denmark. The meeting is aimed at researchers with an interest in early-career researcher experience.

The meeting will begin with an optional writing retreat followed by workshops on the following topics:

• Research funding proposal: Why is it that the text is key but not sufficient for success?
• Textbook: Research? Pedagogy? Neither or both?
• Monograph thesis: What makes it a one-time endeavour? Why isn’t it a book?
• Peer review: How do we learn to deal with reviews and to act as reviewers? Why is it an occluded genre?
• Journal articles: Why is it so difficult to write papers? What implies co-authorship? How to combine author’s voice and disciplinary conventions?
• Professional writing: What is the range? What are the challenges?

The deadline for registration is 1 June 2018.
