The Music Education Lab, the Music, Cognitive Sciences and Community Lab and the Master's programme in Music Education in Formal and Informal Settings, Department of Music Studies, NKUA, jointly organise a series of seminars for early-career researchers in the spring semester of 2024.

The “Young Researchers Seminars – Cycle I” aim to provide a forum for productive scholarly dialogue, opportunities to further develop knowledge and skills, and a supportive environment for the personal empowerment of early-career researchers. Topics range from developing research skills and strengthening researchers' professional and academic profiles to issues relating to personal empowerment.

The meetings are intended for undergraduate and postgraduate students undertaking small-scale field research in the subject areas of the two Labs, and for doctoral candidates in Music Studies departments in Greece. They are also open to anyone wishing to broaden or update their knowledge of research in these areas.

Meetings will take place on selected dates (see the detailed programme), on Fridays (16:30-18:00) between March and June 2024, via Zoom. To foster a supportive community, meetings will not be recorded. Participants will be encouraged to keep their cameras on and engage in discussion and reflection, both in plenary sessions and in small groups. Certificate of attendance for the seminar cycle.
