The preliminary program for the event is shown below which will take place on Tuesday, September 13 from 12.30 – 16.30. The event will focus on the skills needed for all early career researchers – with talks related to professional development and presentation skills. Also, we will be providing feedback on the presentations and posters for the conference to those who are interested.
