European Researchers in the UK

Join us for the CONNECTS-UK European Researchers in the UK Event on May 20, 2024, at 14:00 BST (UK Time).
We’ll be gathering both at Coventry University and online for an enriching experience. Our previous launch event in April was dedicated to showcasing CONNECTS-UK’s activities and goals to EU researchers in the UK, along with esteemed stakeholders like scientific attachés, universities, students, journalists, and more.
This time in Coventry, we’re excited to offer European Researchers across all disciplines working in the UK the opportunity to present their ongoing research. It’s a fantastic chance to not only share insights but also to forge meaningful scientific connections with fellow researchers from across the UK.
Given the limited space in Coventry University’s auditorium, seats will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. And for those travelling from outside Coventry, we’re happy to contribute up to £50 per person towards the cost of 2nd class train or bus tickets (for up to 100 individuals, selected on a first-come, first-served basis). Just remember to keep a copy of your ticket for reimbursement.
Can’t make it to Coventry? No problem—tune in online via our live stream and be part of the event wherever you are
