#RSCPoster Twitter Conference - webinar series

1 March 2022 09:00 - 2 March 2022 11:00, Zoom webinar, GMT, United Kingdom


Introduction
The #RSCPoster Twitter Conference is an annual virtual event, bringing together the global chemistry community to network with peers, share their research and engage in scientific debate. #RSCPoster subjects cover the entire breadth of the chemical sciences and related topics.

We are once again running #RSCPosterLive, a series of webinars held alongside the #RSCPoster event that will discuss some of the important issues faced by chemical scientists throughout their career. These webinars will be open to everyone – registration is free via the 'Book Now' link.

(Please note, registering for the webinars will not automatically register you to present a poster at #RSCPoster and vice versa. If you would like to register to present a poster at #RSCPoster, please see the link in the “Linked events” tab)

For the 2022 event, the webinar schedule will be as follows:
09:00 UTC 1 March – Work-life balance in academia
14:00 UTC 1 March – Careers in industry
09:00 UTC 2 March – Diversity in the chemical sciences

We have tried to spread the sessions across timezones, however we understand that not everyone will be able to make these timeslots. We will send all registered attendees a link to the recorded webinar following the event, therefore please do register even if you are unable to make the session. If you won’t be able to attend the live webinar but have a specific question you would like to ask our panellists, you may send this in to rscposter@rsc.org in advance, and this will be passed on to the session hosts to ask at each Q & A.
