Join the "Implementing R&R: A Dilemma for Early Career Academics" workshop if you want to be part of the future of R&R! The discussion around R&R has traditionally centred around senior scientific staff, but they form only a small fraction of the academic staff at our universities. In an interactive fishbowl panel we will tackle the dilemmas faced by early career academics as R&R is being implemented. Early career academics must be involved in the R&R debate, especially when it comes to implementation, since we will be impacted for the rest of our careers. Let's kickstart this debate together!

  • Here you can read a summary from this workshop (with thanks to the reporter for making it):

    Minister Dijkgraaf was present during this workshop. The Recognition & Rewards movement creates dilemmas for Early Career Academics (ECA’s), and the participants did recognize this: should ECA’s for instance enter into the discussion with their supervisor, that they want to show they are dissertation-worthy in a ‘different’ way than the traditional way, or just do what everyone else has always done during this transition period? Is it wise to already submit a narrative when applying for a research grant, or just cite their number of publications? Why is there not more focus on beginning faculty in many universities' R&R programs (and in this workshop as well)? The discussion was lively, and participants could well sense that for ECA’s, these questions feel like one to which there is no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ answer.

    What are the main take aways of this session?

    So far in many R&R project groups at universities there are few ECAs, even though Recognition & Rewards is also about them. They are our future senior academics! Therefore, the main take away is: include them in the project and steering groups. Don't talk about them but include them. In return they bring energy and good ideas.

  • @margotwevers, @hannekeslop, @seansapcariu, @jasperroodenburg, @lentelerink, @voorzitterpnn, @marjanvanhunnik, @hoogstraat, @jannaheynenbehnke, @stansdehaas, @asligulmus, @kaspergossink, @irisgoedhart, @liekefastenhout, @wiebkeeberhardt, @paulboselie, @mariekeadriaanse thank you for attending this workshop! If you know any Early Careers (or are one yourself) who like to actively participate in a RRview-group, please let me know. And I am also very interested in practices about 'new' dissertation experiments which we can share to inspire others.
