[Erweitern]Dear early-career researchers,
we are organizing a Young Scientist Retreat for you again this October! At this retreat, young researchers from the field of biological psychology come together to talk about their projects. The collegial feedback is very valuable and helps in every phase of a project. You can present whatever you like (planned project, new data, methodology, science slam, problem, etc.).
In addition, we will discuss the topic "Mental Health and Resilience in academia", in a workshop featuring Desiree Dickerson, PhD (https://dickersonetal.com/). We will also visit the Institute for Systems Neuroscience at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf, where Dr. Tobias Sommer and his colleagues investigate the interaction of the brain and body during memory, pain, social interaction and more. And of course there will be lots of space for networking!
Here are the key facts for you:
- Date: October 21st (check-in: 4-6pm, start: 6pm) to 24th 2025
- Location: Hamburg
- Costs: 100€ for members of DGPA AND bioDGPs, 150€ for members of DGPA OR bioDGPs, 200€ for non-members
- Included: Overnight stay for 3 nights with meals and coffee breaks in the a&o Hamburg City in a 2-bed room (Spaldingstr. 160, 20097 Hamburg).
Who can apply? Doctoral candidates, post-docs and junior professors (up to 8 years after the doctorate; for each child supervised, the period is extended by one year).
Registration is now open until 29.09.2025, 16:00 CET. Places will be allocated in order of registration. To register, please fill in: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfRkLJe2ZMP3JUTDZ2K6ypy-_x1hKFLWFuU1SqPX6eGbg3Vbw/viewform?usp=sharing&ouid=116471424820546470417
If you are interested in the Young Scientist Retreat and are not yet a member, you can apply for membership at the same time as you register for the Young Scientist Retreat and benefit from the reduced price for participation. Becoming a member of the DGPA and the bioDGPs is associated with numerous advantages. Here you can find all information about the memberships:
- DGPA: https://www.dgpa.de/mitgliedschaft/allgemeines.html
- DGPs: https://www.dgps.de/mitgliedschaft
We are grateful for the generous financial support of the German Society for Psychophysiology and its Application (DGPA) and the DGPs Division of Biological Psychology and Neuropsychology (bioDGPs), which makes the Young Scientist Retreat possible every year.
A flyer with further information on the Young Scientist Retreat is attached to this e-mail as a PDF. Please feel free to forward this e-mail to other potentially interested parties! We are looking forward to an exciting meeting in presence with lots of scientific input and discussions!
