Early Career Researchers' Network

The group's aim is to support Early Career Researchers (ECRs) at the UCL School of Pharmacy across all Research Departments.

For the purposes of this group we focus on people who are post (or late) PhD and early stage research staff, transitioning to independence. This support includes acting as a voice to advocate on behalf of ECRs, as well as organising and directing activities for ECRs. We also organise a yearly ECR away day to bring together all researchers at the UCL School of Pharmacy.

The ECR Network is run by a committee, which consists of representatives from all Research Departments within the School of Pharmacy. If you want to be a part of the network, please contact the Committee Chair (michael.t.cook@ucl.ac.uk) or your Research Department Representative. We have a mailing list and Teams channel to keep you up-to-date with the network’s activities.
