Throughout our career, professional development can help us build our future. In resonance with the 18^th ICC motto « Roots and Wings for a Better World », we propose the following professional development events.
 

“TENDING TO OUR WINGS” Professional development event over lunch

Addressed primarily but not exclusively to early career researchers to help take off , have lunch at one of the five themed-tables to exchange with our experts on Ethics of scientific integrity and reproducibility, Diversity, equity and inclusion, Time management, Mentoring or Science communication.

Key words: Scientific integrity and reproducibility, Diversity, equity and inclusion, Time management, Mentoring, Science communication
 

These sessions will feature expert-led sub-groups for each theme, encouraging open dialogue and diverse perspectives. Seize the opportunity to connect and share insights, and to enhance your professional development in a more relaxed and interactive setting.

“TENDING TO OUR ROOTS” Professional development event over lunch

Addressed to all researchers at any stage of their career, to offer an interdisciplinary moment -intertwining catalysis and history, philosophy, sociology & Earth system- sciences for continuous grounding of our research. Participate to an interdisciplinary dialogue :
“Consider the power of Catalysis, the science of Acceleration over a century, through social sciences lenses”

Key words: Catalysis, Transformation, Anthropocene, History, Philosophy, Geography.

Meet during the lunch break an historian, a sociologist, a chemist or a philosopher around an interdisciplinary conversation intertwining the practice of catalysis with the complex fabric of the 21^st century to discuss our common Anthropocene-rooted interdependencies and disciplinary needs for continuous grounding of our research practices.

“TENDING TO A BETTER FUTURE” Professional development event over lunch

Addressed to all, in an intergenerational event co-organized by the Young Scientist committee and Ethics committee, to discuss how scenarios and other shared narratives can help shape our futures, there included our future research in catalysis.

Key words: Intergenerational, professional development, T-shaped skills and knowledge, Scenarios, Narratives for the future

Mixing young scientists and confirmed researchers, mixing our roots and our wings, come talk about your take–home messages of the week: drawing on the exchanges of the previous lunch events, what are the take home message on how catalysis, and a conference like this, can shape the better futures to come?
