Welcome to the online home of netECR. We are an independent, horizontal, international network of Early and Mid- Career Researchers (ECRs) working in suicide and self-harm – netECR! Through netECR, we aim to facilitate collaborations, networking, and mutual support for ECRs in the field of suicide and self-harm research.

On this website we provide information for all our activities and a space for ECRs to publish blogs/articles on different topics such as academia, suicide prevention, research, careers advice, lived experience, events, and others themes.

netECR membership is free of charge and is open to all ECRs engaged in and/or contributing to suicide and self-harm research. If you want to learn more about netECR and find out how to become part of our network, please visit ‘About us’ page.

Feel free to explore the whole website. We hope you enjoy your visit!

About

netECR is an independent, international network of early and mid- career researchers (ECRs) working in, or contributing to, the field of suicide and self-harm research. The network aims to facilitate horizontal mentorship, discussion, exchange of ideas and collaborations, as well as to promote networking and mutual support for ECRs.

Projects

In addition to the vivid networking and horizontal mutual support among netECR members, our community also develops and runs formal projects and collaborations. Learn more about them through the pages below.

We are the next generation of suicide and self-harm researchers. I truly believe that, working together, we are contributing to build a strong and cohesive community, committed to deliver the best possible scientific knowledge to help people and to save lives.

Sharing ideas and knowledge with my fellow suicide and self-harm ECRs helps me to improve my research, and its potential impact.
