Description

This event aims to summarise and discuss the key findings and conclusions of the European Early-Career Researchers' (ECRs)* input to the European Particle Physics Strategy Update (EPPSU). It will take place in person at CERN while remote participation possible via Zoom. The event is open to all, regardless of career stage or affiliation. We warmly welcome your participation and input

The input covers a wide range of topics — from career development and mental well-being to science communication and both collider and non-collider future particle physics projects — It is accompanied by a 100-page White Paper (arXiv:2503.19862) which motivates each of the 55 recommendations to improve both our future and that of the the field. These are supported by a community-wide survey of over 800 ECRs from institutions across Europe. If you agree with the messages outlined in the document, you are very welcome to express your support by registering on the ECRs White Paper input support page

* ECRs: According to the ECFA (European Committee for Future Accelerators) definition, ECRs are PhD Students or post-docs in or employed at European institutes, with non-permanent positions or < 10 years after finishing their PhD.
