Early Career Representation
We would like to encourage PhD students and early postdocs to become more involved in our activities, and have therefore created the post of an Early Career Representative for our regional group.
The South Wales Immunology Group is now run by a committee of four people:
- Chairman - Dr Matthias Eberl
- Secretary - Dr Ian Humphreys
- Treasurer - Dr Stephen Man
- Early Career Representative - Laura Evans
Activities our local students and postdocs may become involved in include:
- arranging informal discussions with our invited speakers
- inviting and hosting their own external/internal speakers
- organising events of interest for students and early postdocs, e.g. career workshops
- organising meetings with students from other institutions, e.g. a Cardiff-Bristol student meeting
- posting student-related content on our website
- creating a Facebook profile for our regional group
- liaising with other regional groups
- liaising with the Early Career Representatives on the BSI Forum
- having their own fixed budget for the above mentioned activities
- ... and coming up with additional and/or completely different ideas!
