(S7E5) From Idea to Application: Supporting Research Fellowship Applicants with Anna Pilz
Manage episode 406242250 series 3409585
In our weekly Research Culture Uncovered conversations we are asking what is Research Culture and why does it matter? In episode 5 of season 7, Anna Pilz (Academic Developer and Trainer at the University of Edinburgh) joins Taryn Bell (Researcher Development Adviser) to discuss research fellowships.
We discuss the added value researcher developers can bring to the application process, how Anna's own experiences applying for fellowships have shaped her practice as a researcher developer, and how we can best support researchers as they go through the practical and emotional challenges involved.
The main points include:
- The importance of acknowledging the lived realities faced by researchers, particularly early career researchers on precarious contracts
- How to use fellowship applications as an opportunity for long-term professional development and reflection on career goals
- How researcher developers can bust common myths about funding
- The role of emotional intelligence to support researchers throughout the process
Resources mentioned in the episode include:
- A Comprehensive Guide to Fellowship Applications
- The University of Edinburgh's Researcher Realities series
- The University of Leeds' Fellowships and Grants webpage
- Leeds' new Fellowship Accelerator Programme
