I’m looking forward to this event. I’ll be riffing off the London-Edinburgh Weekend Return Group’s idea of being ‘in and against the state’ to reflect on what it means to pursue an academic career ‘in, against and beyond’ the university. Which is something I'm still trying to figure out myself...

Looking forward to this one! We'll be hearing from three wonderful guests (@rosaleenduffy.bsky.social, @kaiheron.bsky.social and Dr Jane Clarke) about the different doors your environment PhD can open 👀🗝️🌍

Very much looking forward to this - I’ll be talking about the job search in academia, with key insights from some very generous ECRs about their own journeys in to academia. Sign up is in the link ⬇️

It's time to start planning for next year's conference! Get in touch if you want information on the process, or if you'd like us to share a call for papers!
