Are you an Early Career Researcher looking to expand your networks, discover new collaboration opportunities, and grow your research profile?

Join the Learned Society of Wales for the 3rd Annual Early-Career Researchers Network Colloquium, where you’ll have the chance to:

• Present your research to a supportive and engaged interdisciplinary audience
• Build connections with researchers, Fellows of the Society, policymakers, and practitioners
• Develop your skills through a variety of training and development opportunities

The Colloquium programme is being co-developed by our interdisciplinary Advisory Group for Researcher Development, who will help to make sure that the programme meets the professional development needs of researchers in Wales. We’re delighted to partner with Cardiff Metropolitan University to host this year’s ECR Colloquium in Cardiff.

Researchers working within and outside of academia are encouraged to attend. We also welcome mid-careers to the Colloquium. Registration for the Colloquium will open in April. 

Travel Bursaries and Accommodation 

The Colloquium will take place over two half-days. Travel bursaries and accommodation are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Priority will be given based on need, travel distance, and to presenters. If you are submitting an abstract to present at the Colloquium and require a travel bursary, please indicate this on the Call for Abstracts Submission form. Information for General Registrants will be made available when registration opens in April 2025.
