will feature a selection of ECR (Early Career Researcher)
sessions. These will be a great opportunity for Masters’ and
PhD students to get to know each other before start of the
conference, and we will have sessions on 'What is an
(academic) conference?', Careers (academic and non academic)
in GI Science and Research (including grant writing and
interdisciplinary collaboration). We will also have a
session a couple of weeks before the main conference,
dedicated to presenting online, to help you develop your
presentations before the conference itself. All Masters’ and
PhD students are welcome, as are early career post-docs and
researchers. We will also be running a separate session
(GISRUK for the uninitiated) for those who are new to the
GISRUK conference series and would like to learn a bit more
about it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
