Mentoring early career researchers

YERUN, the Young European Research Universities Network, warmly invites you to the second event of its lunchtime series on early career researchers: Mentoring early career researchers.

YERUN lunchtime series June 2023

Mentoring can facilitate the professional development of both early career researchers and university staff. It can also become a useful instrument in the toolbox of equality, diversity and inclusion policies.

Although mentoring can take place organically, concrete action may be needed to support it and foster a culture of mentoring in academia.

This session reviews some of the challenges and solutions found by universities to develop and make good use of this practice.

 

Featured Speakers:

Inma Andrés
Student Programmes Manager & Research Advisor, Brunel University London

Oleksandr Berezko
President, EURODOC - European Council of Doctoral Candidates and Junior Researchers 

Aurélie Carlier
Tenure-Track Associate Professor at the MERLN Institute, Maastricht University; Co-founder and vice-chair of FEM - Female Empowerment Maastricht University 

Alison O’Regan
