Ayse Nur Karayel and Magdalena Koschmieder were awarded grants of 300€ each to attend the Post-Graduate Training Workshop organised by the British Society for Geomorphology (BSG) – and more specifically by Dr. Lucy Clark and Prof. John Wainwright. This grant allowed them to stay four days at the Cumberland Lodge (Windsor, UK) – find their full reports in pdf here:
Reports describe an overall “enriching experience“, and an “excellent workshop”. Both grant holders received “constructive feedback” on their research projects, which is very valuable at an early stage of a research career. Activities and themes were diverse: oral session, practical workshops on data analysis, discussion on ethics in research, information on academic writing and publishing… Ayse summarises the workshop as follows: “a comprehensive experience that bridged theoretical knowledge with practical application“. The four-days event was also prone to develop a network between PhD students, in a friendly atmosphere: walks in the Windsor park, pool and tennis table, great meals and social moments were also part of the program!
