The applications are now open for the September 2024 Earthwatch Science Camp.

These unique residential learning events give early career environmental researchers the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in how to engage communities in their research. The training is also ideal for those who want to explore how research, citizen science and science communications can benefit the communities they are working with.

The deadline for applications for the September camp is 23rd June 2024

Please find the link to the Earthwatch Science Camp September 2024 Application Form

More information is available on Earthwatch Europe’s website and a short film of Science Camp on youTube, which goes into more detail about the background and objectives of the training.

FHSS student needs help with online questionnaire for her research

BU research, PG research, Research communication, student research Edwin van Teijlingen

Our PhD student Orlanda Harvey is currently conducting her study on why people use Anabolic Androgenic Steroids (AAS). Since steroid use is a sensitive topic and its users are a hard-to-reach population we need as much help as we can get to get her survey distributed to as many as possible potential steroid users (aged 18 and over). We, as her PhD supervisors, would like to ask you to alert friends, family, neighbours, health care professionals working with this target group, etc. to the existence of this survey. Her questionnaire is available in paper version (from harveyo@bournemouth.ac.uk or telephone Edwin van Teijlingen at: 01202-961564). However, the easiest and most anonymous way would be for people to complete it online using the following online link.

Thank you very much in advance!
