SIG8 JURE members: Sign up for the ‘How-to’ meetings!

The SIG08-JURE organizes ‘how-to’ meetings for junior and early career researchers/PhD students. During these short (30-minute) virtual meetings, we provide an opportunity to stay in touch with SIG08 JURE members in between yearly conferences and to discuss a variety of topics such as ‘how to present at conferences,’ ‘how to publish a paper,’ ‘how to network,’ and much more! We will first delve into some background information about the topic being discussed, and after that, have an interactive discussion with all participants. The meetings are geared towards the needs of our junior and early career members. Let us know if you want to receive information about upcoming sessions. Please share the link with your colleagues and PhD students! Questions? Contact our JURE coordinators Juliane Schlesier (juliane.schlesier@uni-greifswald.de) and/or Jonne Bloem (j.bloem@uu.nl)

Sign up by filling out the form, accessible through the link or scanning the QR below!
