In the morning, we will run an optional interactive workshop for core facility staff and users:
- Facilitated by Helena Coker (University of Oxford), the aim of this workshop is to build confidence and skill in ‘selling’ your equipment or services to users. With help from industry, we will merge corporate teaching into facility life to explore approaches to a user and how they compare to those from vendors and applications specialists. Highlighting key transferable skills in leadership and communication, this will be a valuable workshop for early career facility staff. For seasoned facility staff, industry colleagues, and end user Imaging Scientists, this workshop will help you recognise and build on those skills, whilst giving you the opportunity to share your experiences with the group.
After a buffet lunch, we will have 3 sessions of short talks on funding, career paths and recognition, and community engagement, follwoed by networking drinks.
