The German Research Foundation (DFG) recently developed ten principles which it offers as recommendations, both to its member institutions and to all other institutions and individuals that receive funding from the DFG to finance early-career researchers. These principles are to be understood as a supplement to the guidelines for safeguarding good research practice. They summarise how the situation of researchers in early career phases should be structured and are especially applicable to doctoral and postdoctoral researchers.

How do I deal with other researchers' data and when are others allowed to use my research data? What do I have to consider when I publish my dissertation? How big is my scientific impact? In our virtual information series for doctoral candidates, experts from the University Library answer questions and give valuable tips on topics such as copyright, open access, searching on the web, or literature management with Citavi. All topics and dates for the summer semester are available at: www.uni-due.de/gcplus/de/skills_angebote_publicationdays.php (in German).

Join an interdisciplinary network of talented postdocs! The Global Young Faculty (GYF) enables postdoctoral researchers from the Ruhr area to work together with other researchers for three semesters on a topic of their choice that is relevant to society. The call for the seventh round has recently been published. The programme is aimed at researchers from all disciplines who have completed their doctorate with very good results, are aiming for a scientific career, and do not yet hold a professorship (W1 to W3). The UDE can nominate up to 35 promising researchers for the seventh GYF cohort (internal coordination of nominations will be coordinated by the Science Support Centre, contact person: Catharina Yacoub, UDE-internal deadline for submission of nominations: 25 May).
