Join LSW and EMPOWER on the 6th October (11am-2pm), for an event that highlights the importance of gender diversity in research funding decisions. This is a hybrid event, with in-person attendance at Sbarc|Spark, Cardiff University.

This will be followed by an interdisciplinary panel discussion sharing top tips for joining review panels. A Networking Lunch is available to those attending in-person.

This event is being run by EMPOWER and supported by the Learned Society of Wales. LSW is offering a limited number of travel bursaries for ECR Network members travelling from further afield.
