Early Career Researcher (ECR) Advisory Group

Our primary focus for the ECR is to interact with the UK Cilia Network to enable the network to identity early career researcher’s needs and to facilitate how to best address these. We aim to do this by encouraging mentorship, training opportunities and showcasing career paths, in addition to the networks ongoing events.

We want to streamline the UK Cilia Network’s webpage to build a searchable platform that the community can use to find members with similar research interest and find training opportunities.

We have prepared a survey to be circulated to current and potential members, the information from this survey would be used to create more detailed profile information for members including research interests and technical expertise. Building on this there would be capacity to add details of your career path and express interest in hosting or travelling between institutions for training or presenting purposes.

We would also use this dedicate webpage to highlight relevant seminars, training opportunities and events. The page would be linked to the network’s other social media accounts and allow users to stay current within cilia research.
