The British Academy Early Career Researcher Network brings together ECRs across the humanities and social sciences disciplines, regardless of their funding source or background.
ECR and Interdisciplinarity in the Medical Humanities
This ECR-focused event brings together researchers in Medical and Health Humanities at Bournemouth from across the faculties of Health & Social Science, Media & Communication and Science & Technology, inviting them to highlight and address the main challenges of working within this varied and interdisciplinary field.
It will feature an expert roundtable and open discussion, followed by breakout groups and opportunity for networking activity for ECRs.
Suggested topics for speakers to address include, but are not limited to:
- Research and knowledge exchange in MH
- Publishing (choosing the right journal for MH research, collaborative writing)
- Bidding (where to bid, what for and how to construct productive teams and partnerships)
- How to work effectively together but also maintain a sense of disciplinary identity
- What experiences have participants had and how has this affected your research career to date?
- Imposter syndrome
- Work/life balance
