About
ISRE’s Early Career Researchers Section (ECRS) is a group of volunteers that develops programming and initiatives designed to benefit junior members of ISRE, including students, postdocs, and junior faculty.
At this year’s conference in Belfast, the ECRS hosted a social for early career attendees and sponsored this year’s poster award, which recognizes outstanding poster presentations from early career scholars.
We are currently planning initiatives for 2025, including the biannual webinar series which enables ISRE members to learn the latest advancements in emotion research from established scholars in various areas of affective science. We will share more about these initiatives over the coming year, so stay tuned!
The ECRS is also excited to welcome our newest volunteers:
. Rachele Lievore, Ph.D. (University of Padua),
. Riya Mishra (Indian Institute of Technology – Kanpur),
. and Chris Riddell (University of Leiden)!
