Becoming a researcher involves more than developing disciplinary expertise and completing a Higher Degree by Research. In this session, current HDR students and Early Career Researchers will reflect on some of the key threshold moments and experiences encountered during their research journey. These reflections will enable us to explore the skills, capacities and affective dimensions of the process of becoming a scholar and how these can be best cultivated and supported.
