UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) is calling on postdoctoral researchers, research associates and other early career researchers to join its new Early Career Researcher Forum.
The forum will give researchers a voice in UKRI’s strategy, policy development and decision making.
UKRI hopes to help build a community for early career researchers to benefit from peer interactions, learning, support and other opportunities.
Apply to join the forum today
The forum is open to researchers who identify themselves as employed as early career researchers.
Submit an application to join the Early Career Researcher Forum.
UKRI are asking for applications by 18:00 on 29 January. Applications may be submitted after this date, but those wishing to attend induction events at the end of February should submit their application by this deadline.
