Community
Sessions, peer support, and where to find everyone
The part of the hub that links people. Works-in-progress sessions where you can present work that is part-way through and come away with ideas from your peers, webinars for improving research skills, one-to-one support from researchers who have travelled your journey, and a WhatsApp community for everything in between. All times shown in your time zone.

Someone to ask
Researchers at any stage of their career can ask and answer questions on the hub. Insights from first-year doctoral students are as important as those from experienced professors.
Often, the fastest way to answer a question is to ask someone who's done it before. That's open to everyone here, at any career stage — professors, clinician-researchers, and first-year doctoral students are just as likely to be the ones offering help as the ones seeking it.
One to one
Researchers across the network can indicate if they're open to mentoring or collaboration. Message them through the hub; their address stays private and yours is shared only so they can reply.
In a small group
Peer-support sessions are deliberately low-pressure: a safe and non-judgmental space to bring a part-formed idea, a protocol you're stuck on, or a question you'd rather not ask in a big webinar.
Right now
For anything that fits in a message, the WhatsApp community is the fast track to the answers you need.
Present your work in progress or hear from others
Sessions are shaped by the community: put yourself forward and the ICPCN team will help you find a slot. Review the events calendar to hear from others' experience or connect over new ideas. You do not need finished results — work in progress is the point. Recordings of past talks live in the talks library.
Sign in to put yourself forward. Works-in-progress sessions are a friendly place to present at any stage.
Know of an event we should list?
Conferences, courses and webinars run by other organisations are welcome on this calendar. ICPCN reviews each suggestion before it gets added.
