DISC 2020
Junior-Senior Meetings
Meet a Professor or Researcher
What is This?
Research is a life-long journey and those who have travelled the path longer are best suited to guide those just starting out or early in their journey. The goal of these Junior-Senior meetings is to provide a platform for junior researchers (students and postdocs) to interact with seniors in the field and profit from their experience, whether it be in how to approach research, dealing with the job market, or perhaps more personal concerns like work-life balance.
This is organized in association with the 34th International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC 2020).
Have some Feedback?
If you have any feedback you'd like to give us, please enter it here:
https://forms.gle/fCENg9Djo3JmSYsh7
We'd love to know how to improve your experience and any suggestions you may have are welcome. Even if you'd just like to share how you felt about the experience, we'd love to hear from you.
How does it Work?
We release a survey on September 28th, 2020 asking you (junior researchers) for some basic info and asking you when you are free to attend a meeting, why you want to meet, and if there is someone (senior researcher) in particular you want to meet.
Fill out the survey by October 5th, 2020 at 23:59, AoE.
We will email you by October 11th, 2020 to let you know when your session is and provide a Zoom link to the session.
Join the Zoom session 10 minutes before your session begins.
Learn something & have fun!
Note that there may be multiple junior researchers present to meet the same senior researcher.
