The Graduate School is pleased to offer opportunities for informal interactions between postgraduate students and visiting scholars on the Visiting Research Professors Scheme. Through these exchanges, prominent researchers will share their immense experience and insights in becoming successful academics, and students are encouraged to ask questions about how to be better prepared for a career in research and higher education.

A sandwich lunch and drink will be provided at the sharing sessions. Don’t miss these great opportunities to get aspired and prepared for your future!

Forthcoming Session:

Professor Garth Cooper
Professor in Discovery and Experimental Medicine
Faculty of Medical and Human Sciences, University of Manchester, UK

Professor Cooper will begin the session by building a picture of a sustainable career in scientific research through analysis of principles that he has found to be important guides, and provide a platform for a wider discussion with participation of the audience on the basis for a sustainable career.  While Professor Cooper's career has been in biomedicine and its therapeutic application, the advice he has received from outstanding and insightful individuals is relevant far beyond that field.
