Description
Research culture is the environment in which your research happens, it
includes the ways we collaborate and communicate; the behaviours, values
and expectations that shape the research process and mechanisms by which
your work is recognised and rewarded.
This workshop is specifically designed for ECRs and post-doctoral
researchers to understand how research culture has an impact, what you
can do to positively influence the culture around you and the wider
implications of workplace culture on your career going forward.
By the end of this workshop participants will be able to:
• Describe the key aspects of positive research culture and its
importance within the research environment

understanding to inform career planning.
Benefits of attending:

research group/environment

career development
