Our NABS+ Seminar Series brings together Early Career Researchers (ECRs) and experienced academics and practitioners to explore topics that support personal, professional, and research development in behavioural and social science for security and defence.
Each seminar provides a friendly space to share experiences, ask questions, and gain insights that help ECRs navigate the opportunities and challenges of their research careers.
What’s On
We run seminars on a range of topics, from managing emotionally demanding research to practical skills and career development advice.
Details of future seminars will be shared here so check back soon for upcoming dates or sign up to the CREST/NABS+ newsletter.
