Your EASST/ 4S ECR representatives,

Event 1: Tuesday 16th of July, 9:00 to 10:30 am, where? Aurora (HG-0C29), Main building Round Table: Demystifying Publishing Landscapes for Early Career Researchers (ECRs) Are you an Early Career Researcher (ECR) navigating the complex world of academic publishing in Science and Technology Studies (STS)? Join us at the EASST/4S Amsterdam meeting for an insightful roundtable discussion titled "Demystifying Publishing Landscapes for ECRs." This session is designed to provide a space for reflecting on the current STS publishing landscape through the lens of early career scholars. What are some current publishing struggles and difficulties we face as ECRs, and are any of these STS-specific? Are we constrained by available outputs, and could it be otherwise? How do we move beyond entrenched norms of publishing, and what alternative avenues can we pursue? Through an informal discussion, this roundtable intends to reflect on the state of publishing in STS (the good and the bad), discuss alternative academic outputs for ECRs in STS, and, most importantly, offer valuable career advice for ECRs on navigating this oftentimes puzzling landscape. Our roundtable features scholars from various career stages and platforms. Post-docs will share their experiences of transforming their theses into books, offering practical insights and strategies. Senior scholars with extensive knowledge of STS publishing will discuss the intricacies of the publishing process, highlight common obstacles, and explore innovative publishing avenues. This is an excellent opportunity for ECRs to gain firsthand advice, expand their understanding of the publishing landscape in STS, and engage in meaningful dialogue about how publishing in STS is experienced by and affects ECRs. Don't miss this chance to enhance your academic career with guidance from those who have successfully navigated the path. Join us for this dynamic session and take the next step in your publishing journey! After the roundtable, there will be time for informal discussions with our panelists (or other ECRs) over coffee and small snacks! To help us estimate our number please fill out this form! Panelists: Kean Birch, Ontario Research Chair in Science Policy, York University Sarah Davis, University of Vienna Wolfgang Kaltenbrunner, Centre for Science and Technology Studies, Leiden University Julien McHardy, Mattering Press Paul Trauttmansdorff, European New School of Digital Studies, European University Viadrina Frankfurt (Oder)
