Early Career Essentials for Applied Biologists
VISIT EVENT WEBSITE
The membership of the Association of Applied Biologists includes a unique cohort of early career professionals. This group includes ECPs who work across academia, industry, farming and agriculture. This sets the AAB apart from other societies whose membership cohorts are more homogeneous. We surveyed the AAB ECPs and there was a consensus choice for AAB to organise an event that mixes opportunities to present their research and participate in workshops that discuss skills, careers and other challenges/opportunities outside of research.
