Our preprint is now live and open for discussion on Open Research Europe! Empowering ECRs to Make Research Projects Flourish: Lessons from a European Research Project Read the full preprint here: doi.org/10.12688/ope...

Co-led by Julius Schlumberger and myself, this perspective examines how the EU Horizon 2020 project MYRIAD-EU integrated Early Career Researcher (ECR) empowerment into its framework.

Achieved through involvement of ECRs in project management, organization of events, and initiatives to foster networks. Three key enabling factors for creating an empowering environment were identified, aiming to encourage projects and funding institutions to further build on these practices.
