Calling all individuals interested in rehabilitation and prevention interventions.  We are having our first event, an away afternoon to meet like minded researchers and develop your research network.

Whatever the focus of your research is or your professional background, whether it be at population or individual level, public health or rehabilitation of a particular condition in a particular demographic of people, whether you are a PGR or a senior academic, we would like this to be your research home. Come and share the highlights of what you do in a 5-minute Lightning talk and hear from the highlights of others.

We want the workstream to be a place to talk about the sort of research enquiry that puts the joy into your working life. A place to share and celebrate in your project successes, and to get a welcome lift when your latest research bid or journal submissions are rejected. This research stream is a place to learn from those more experienced, from those with alternative expertise, identify a mentor or a coach, and for others to learn from you and benefit from your coaching and mentorship. A place to test out your ideas and get feedback from critical friends. A place to identify collaborators for your next research project.

Is your research broadly “rehabilitation and prevention”? Then this is your place.

The event will have lightning talks to get to know each other our background and research.

Attendees are required to prepare a 5-minute lightning talk – 5 PowerPoint slides maximum to summarise your background as a researcher, what you’ve done, are doing, and plan to do. Nice and concise so we quickly get to know what everyone is about. There will be a timer!
