A community for junior researchers 

Future Faculty aims to function as a network platform to promote career development for early career researchers and to facilitate collaboration among them. Future Faculty is part of the National Junior Faculty Sweden, an umbrella organization for local junior/future faculties at Swedish universities, aiming to improve conditions for young scientists.

Welcome to our seminars and workshops

Future Faculty provides seminars, workshops, and discussions on topics pertinent to early-career researchers. We also arrange the annual Sahlgrenska Academy Junior Research Symposium, a two-day meeting to promote junior researchers and facilitate networking.
