The aim of the Early Career Investigator (ECI) network within HERALD is to promote the next generation of ALD scientists and to help them to establish themselves as research leaders in the ALD community. We organize workshops where the ECIs can meet to exchange ideas on career moves, grant applications and possible collaborations.
If you are interested in joining this network, please contact us on heraldeci@gmail.com. Broadening out the COST definition of ECI, we welcome investigators from within a year of submitting their PhD dissertation to PhD+10 years - however, these are not strict limits.
