Students and New Researchers Network (SNRN)


The Student and New Researchers Network (SNRN) is open to all students, postdoctoral trainees, and new researchers (who have fewer than 5 years of experience from their terminal degree) in the field of environmental epidemiology or other related disciplines. SNRN members come from all over the world. The SNRN aims to create a global network of students and new researchers that:

  • Encourages researchers at the early stages of their careers by sharing ideas, issues, and opportunities in the field of environmental epidemiology
  • Sponsors and organizes workshops for career development activities at the annual meeting and throughout the year
  • Organizes events at the annual meeting that brings students and new researchers together and helps them network with more senior members  
  • Distributes information to the SNRN through social media (e-Newsletter, website, Twitter)
  • Provides recognition in the form of Best Abstract Awards to students and early career researchers participating in the annual conferences
