The ISC EMCR Forum provides the backdrop for global scientific collaboration, promoting diversity and inclusion when it comes to scientific representation from across the world and from all scientific career stages.
The International Science Council (ISC) recognizes that Early and Mid-Career scientists and young academies are confronted with many challenges when navigating and evolving within complex science systems. These challenges include funding, access to resources and support, as well as the need to build collaborative relationships within the scientific community.
To address these challenges, the ISC has made a commitment to fostering an ecosystem of collaboration, resource sharing, and partnership by engaging with young scientists at national, regional, and global levels.
Together with ISC Member in an advisory role, the Global Young Academy (GYA), the ISC continuously extend a line of support and partnership to young scientists, encourages international, intergenerational, and interdisciplinary collaboration and dialogue.
The Forum offers opportunities for collaboration with ISC Members within an ecosystem of information exchange, regular meetings and joint initiatives.
The International Science Council and its Member, the China Association for Science and Technology (CAST), in partnership with Nature, launched a new six-part podcast series exploring the evolving landscape of research careers. Across the series, early- and mid-career researchers are in conversation with senior scientists, sharing experiences of growth, collaboration, and resilience in the face of rapid change.
Listeners will gain perspectives on navigating international collaboration, building lifelong professional networks, and finding a personal compass in the midst of a shifting academic environment.
