Upcoming Standing up for Science media workshops
Every year we hold four Standing up for Science media workshops for early career researchers: two in London, one in Manchester and one in Scotland.
Workshops are aimed at PhD students, postdocs or equivalent in a first job. Our most recent workshop took place at the University of Manchester on 15th March 2013 and was open to early career researchers in all sciences, engineering and medicine. For full details including photos and comments see the Manchester workshop summary. If you have any questions about this or future workshops, email Victoria.
