SUMMARY:Medact Research Network Quarterly Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The Medact Rights Research Network Quarterly is a space for us to come together\, share our work\, discuss new projects\, or delve into deep discussion about research that has caught your interest. We aim to collectively develop our thought and research practices. \nOur network meets every 3 months\, and is a great way to connect with others interested in research in this area. If you’re looking for a way to get involved in new projects or invite people to join your own – the quarterly meeting is a great place to start. \nAs always\, we invite you to share your work with the group! This could be talking briefly about a research project you’ve recently completed or are currently working on\, or a paper you’ve seen that you’d like to share and discuss with the group. \nYou’ll have 5 minutes to introduce the project\, and then we’ll have space in the meeting for people to further discuss the projects that interest them. It’s a great opportunity to explain a new idea and connect with other researchers keen to collaborate on your project. \nInterested? Get in touch with Sarah\, including a few details of what you’d like to talk about! \n[Registration has now closed]
