Early-career researchers from across Wales are invited to a series of on-line career events in 2026. The purpose of these events is to give early career researchers an insight into the great variety of career options alongside the “traditional” academic route and are aimed at post-graduate and post-doctoral researchers.  

The speakers contributing to the sessions all started their careers at a Welsh University and have since gone on to have successful careers in other sectors either within Wales or elsewhere. These events will celebrate individual career stories as well as showcasing the ways in which Welsh HEIs contribute to the development of a highly skilled and talented workforce for Wales, the UK and beyond.        

We are delighted to announce these fabulous speakers for the third session on Thursday 9th July: 

• Dr Kata Farkas, Principal Consultant in Microbiologogy, Water Research Centre; Honorary Research Fellow, School of Environmental and Natural Sciences, ����VR��Ƶ
• Professor Robert Deaves (FLSW), Product Manager Oxa; Honorary Professor University of Birmingham; Visiting Professor, Bristol Robotics Laboratory
• Dr Emma Brodrick, Programme Management Lead, Onya Therapeutics Ltd    

Our speakers will talk about their varied careers and career paths from doing PhD research to where they are now. This will be followed by a Q&A. Please join us for what promises to be an interesting, insightful and inspirational afternoon – all welcome! 

The session will be delivered via Teams and is being organised by the Wales Concordat Network (that has representation from Aberystwyth University, ����VR��Ƶ, Cardiff University, Cardiff Metropolitan University, Wrexham University, Swansea University, the University of South Wales and the University of Wales Trinity St David) in collaboration with the Learned Society of Wales.
