ANZSEV EARLY-CAREER RESEARCHER SUB-COMMITTEE 

The Early-Career Researcher Sub-committee of the Australian and New Zealand Society for Extracellular Vesicles (ANZSEV) focuses on supporting inclusion of early career researchers (students, junior post-docs, researchers) across the region on all aspects of extracellular vesicles.

You are invited to join in and connect with other EV enthusiasts through our ANZSEV twitter profile- @ANZSEVresearch

The main objective of this forum is to share knowledge as a community and network with other like-minded EV enthusiasts at all research, academic, and industry levels. This forum will connect you with the EV community and provide a platform to share information related to EV technical topics (e.g., EV-omics, statistics, isolation approaches, characterisation, etc.) as well as instrument access, availability, and knowledge about the publication process, conferences, grants, workshop of interest, postdoc and job postings and more!

The ANZSEV ECR subcommittee members will be connected and look forward to using the ANZSEV ECR forum to facilitate networking and support the ECR community. We’d also like to use the forum to connect ECRs to experienced EV researchers who can offer guidance and reply to questions where possible. Finally, we encourage everyone to provide ideas and feedback via the Slack workspace to ensure we are representing the needs of the ECR community. Above all, this forum is about and for you as EV researchers.

In addition, various other ECR-focused events including virtual symposia (mini-symposia to support objectives of ECRs) and inclusion and interaction at the ANZSEV main scientific meeting are scheduled. If you are interested to join the ANZSEV ECR community please contact your ECR representative or committee members.
