Connect, Collaborate, Conquer: An CEEDS & DSI ECR Symposium

Description: Join us on December 2nd, 2025 (10:00–13:30) at the Sky Lounge, InfoLab, for a vibrant hybrid symposium designed to bring together Early Career Researchers (ECRs) from across disciplines. This event offers a platform to share research, spark collaborations, and shape future initiatives supported by CEEDS and DSI.

The programme includes short talks, interactive discussions, and a group activity aimed at exploring key research questions, challenges in cross-disciplinary work, and opportunities for collaboration and funding.

A networking lunch will close the event.

If you would like to attend, please register in advance. ECRs interested in giving a short presentation (5–10 minutes) are warmly encouraged to submit a title and brief abstract (max 100 words) when registering. Come connect, collaborate, and help shape the future of interdisciplinary research at Lancaster!
