Event details

Our first YESI ECR session (for early-career researchers, broadly defined from PhD researchers to lecturers) aims to unpack the experience of unsuccessful grant submissions in the interdisciplinary environmental sustainability space.

By popular demand, we offer this session since we recognise that there is rarely systematic discussion of grant proposals which did not get funded, which sadly is the vast majority of all proposals submitted.

We will hear from Chris Lyon (LCAB/DEG), Kelly Redeker (Biol) and Judith Krauss (Pol/IR) about their own experiences, and analyse two past applications. As ever, there will be plenty of opportunity for questions!
