Early Career Researcher Seminar Series - The Health Effects of Occupational Meaningfulness: Evidence from the UK Furlough Scheme

The Global Research Institute in Health and Care Technologies is delighted to welcome you to our Early Career Researcher (ECR) Seminar Series - an initiative designed to inform, inspire, and support researchers in the early stages of their academic and professional journeys.

This series brings together a diverse range of speakers, including experienced academics, professional service experts, and fellow ECRs, to share practical advice, career insights, and personal experiences. Through these sessions, we aim to explore key aspects of research careers - from publishing and funding to networking, collaboration, and career development both within and beyond academia.

We are pleased to announce that our first guest speaker in the Early Career Researcher Seminar Series, will be Rachel Forshaw, Assistant Professor in the School of Social Sciences and one of the poster prize winners at our ECR Conference earlier this year.

Her talk, entitled 'The Health Effects of Occupational Meaningfulness: Evidence from the UK Furlough Scheme' , promises to offer valuable insights relevant to early career researchers across disciplines.

These sessions will run from 1pm to 2pm in EMG80 (Health and Care Collaborative Space, Hybrid option available)

Tea/coffee and biscuits will be served on arrival.
