Early and Mid Career Researchers Network

A space for Early and Mid Career Researchers (EMCRs) in cancer in Wales to connect with each other, to share knowledge and learning opportunities across institutions

Join our new network for Early and Mid Career Researchers

If you are an early or mid-career cancer researcher based at a university or NHS body in Wales, please join the Wales Cancer Research Centre’s newly established EMCR network, where we hope to bring clinical and non-clinical cancer researchers together to build collaborations across the field, develop a supportive community and provide a series of training events.

If you would like to get involved with the direction of this new initiative or have any suggestions/queries regarding these events please contact Dr Helen Pearson (WCRC, Associate Director).

Please note, if you aren’t sure if you are an early or mid-career researcher, or would like to come along regardless, please sign up!

The next meeting will take place on 22 January 2026 15:00-16:00 online.
