Early Career Investigators Skype meetings and seminaries
Early Career Investigators Skype meetings and seminaries Skype meetings for everyone who has a small or big question looks for an expert to support research has new plans and is looking for others to join just wants to listen to what others do
Early Career Investigators skype meetings Lead and members of the Think Tank did: • Peer-to-peer consulting • Allocate specific experts for specific questions • Give technical support in each others’ studies • Translate abstracts and instruments for each other • Coach each other to design research projects • Help each other writing STSM designs, applications and reports • Exchange interdisciplinary knowledge
Early Career Investigators Skype Seminaries Skype seminaries were held on various topics: • Qualitative and quantitative research methods and epistemiology • Fetal movements • How to write a PHD when having a family with small children • Obstetric violence and its measurement • How to start a new COST Action (with Soo Downe) • How to get started with a PHD • Different countries – different birth cultures: an exchange of experiences and impressions • Regional research – international cooperation
What ECI say about the Think Tank • It made me feel connected with the ACTION • I enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of ECI meetings because this helps to ask all sorts of questions without fear of looking ‘stupid’. • Participants are very open and willingly share their own ideas and experiences. • Loads of new knowledge about becoming/being a PhD student and (most importantly) information of the informal kind, that you do not get from textbooks. • ECI is a wonderful opportunity to get and stay in touch with peers and is not limited to the sharing of information on research. It also provides emotional support. • The multi-disciplinarity and the multi-culturalism of our group offer the opportunity of widening our horizons and see different perspectives and opinions.
