Support for Early Career Researchers
In close cooperation with the Young Researchers in Mathematics Education (YERME), the FAME conference has dedicated activities and support for early career researchers (planning to) attending the conference. In the light of the positive feedback received for the first FAME conference in 2024, we aim to repeat and improve the activities for early career researchers carried out then. We planned two activities and a reduced conference fee for them, described below.
Online Pre-event: 26 Nov 2025 | 14:00-15:30 (UTC+1) | Get ready for FAME2!
Thinking about attending FAME2 as an early career researcher? Curious what to expect and how to prepare a submission? During this online pre-event we will answer these questions. We will discuss what FAME2 is about, which kind of contributions you can submit, what to be aware of when preparing and submitting a proposal, what to expect at the conference and how to get further support. Moreover, we will launch a buddy project for interested early career researchers to critically review each other’s papers to generally support each other before submitting a contribution.
At the conference: 3 June 2026 | 9:30 AM | Morning Session for Early Career Researchers
To give you a perfect start into FAME2, we invite you to join the special early career researcher session on the first morning (before the official registration starts at lunchtime). You will get to know your fellow early career researchers and attend a workshop on research focused on the assessment of mathematics education. The workshop will be chaired by early career researchers Katrin Klingbeil & Filip Moons and Professors Christina Drüke-Noe and Eirini Geraniou. We finish the session with a lunch for the attending early career researchers.
