Early Career Researchers

Early Career Researchers are individuals who have recently completed their advanced degrees, such as a Ph.D., and are beginning their professional journeys in academia or research institutions. They work on exploring new ideas, conducting experiments, and publishing findings to advance knowledge in their field. This stage often involves roles like research assistants, postdoctoral fellows, or junior faculty members. Early Career Researchers are key contributors to scientific progress, gaining experience, developing expertise, and establishing their careers while often seeking funding, collaborations, and recognition for their work.
