PRIMORE Masterclass: Interprofessional PC Research

27, 28 & 29 September 2020

Invıtatıon

This master-class is aiming early career researchers to further develop their professional and research skills. Besides lectures from distinguished speakers, participants will be able to prepare an interprofessional research project under the supervision of experienced mentors. The initial phase of the masterclass will be online learning and group work during the EFPC virtual conference this September (see the program below). Participants will be divided into working groups of maximum 5 people, decide the title and outline of their research proposal. These proposals will be further developed with the guidance of assigned mentors for each group. Completed and approved final work will be presented orally in the first face-to-face meeting of EFPC. Furthermore, participants are also welcome to seek partners and promote their research proposal in the PIE platform. At most 20 participants will be allowed to participate. Priority will be given to candidates from the Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) and the goal is to have multi-professional participation. For application, please use the registration form below and provide your short bio (affiliation, profession, work and research experience). You will be informed about your participation shortly after the 22nd of September.
