SUMMARY:Meet the Editors from Work\, Employment and Society (WES)
DESCRIPTION:Meet the Editors – Dr Knut Laaser and Professor Valeria Pulignano from Work\, Employment and Society (WES)\nThis event is organised by the EDI Working Group of ABCP as part of its “每月一谈” (“EDI Monthly Talk”) series. \nVideo Recording\nhttps://abcp.org.uk/files/webinars/20260327_ABCP_monthly_talk.mp4\nSpeaker\n \nDr Knut Laaser is a Senior Lecturer in Employment Relations at King’s Business School and Research Theme Lead for Sustainable Leadership at the Centre for Sustainable Business. His research interests include the politics of meaningful and meaningless work\, the moral economy of work and employment\, social theory and work\, labor process analysis\, and the changing nature of bank work. Dr Knut Laaser’s research has been published in Work\, Employment and Society\, International Journal of Management Reviews\, Organization\, International Journal of Human Resource Management\, and other journals. His study on meaningful work published in WES received the WES SAGE Innovation Prize (2023). He has served as an editor of WES since 2022 and was a member of the journal’s editorial board from 2019 to 2022. \n \nProfessor Valeria Pulignano is Professor in Sociology at the Centre for Sociological Research (CESO) – KU Leuven. She is titularis of a Francqui Stichting Research Professorship mandate (2023-2026)\, member of Leuven.AI – KU Leuven Institute for Artificial Intelligence\, Fellow at IRRU University of Warwick and LISER (Luxembourg)\, Co-Researcher at CRIMT (Centre for Globalisation and Work) at the University of Montreal and Laval in Canada\, and an Associate Fellow at the ESRC Digital Futures at Work Research Centre (Digit). Her research focuses on comparative European employment relations\, labour markets\, and employment issues\, with particular attention to labour market dualisation\, inequality\, precarious employment\, worker voice\, and job quality. She has served as an editor of WES since 2023\, and her work has been published in leading journals such as WES\, Human Relations\, and Sociology. \nAbstract\nWES is looking for your most ambitious research. As a leading peer-reviewed journal of the British Sociological Association\, WES publishes work that shapes debates across the field — from industrial relations to domestic divisions of labour — with strong international visibility and a commitment to inclusive editorial support. During the session\, you’ll learn about: \n\nWhat the journal is really looking for\nTypical issues often seen in submissions related to China\nPractical guidance to overcome Pulignanotfalls\n\nWhether you are preparing your first journal submission or planning your next publication strategy\, you are very welcome to join us. We’d love to see you there — and please help spread the word by sharing this post with colleagues and friends. \nHow to participate?\nMicrosoft Teams \nMeeting ID: 377 292 425 899 89 \nPasscode: fp3XB9xo

SUMMARY:Meet FRS Professor Kevin Kendall
DESCRIPTION:Meet FRS Professor Kevin Kendall – Discussing Energy Transitions in China and Britain\nThis event is organised by the EDI Working Group of ABCP as part of its “每月一谈” (“EDI Monthly Talk”) series. \nSpeaker\n \nProfessor Kevin Kendall has long been dedicated to research on nanoparticles and sustainable energy technologies\, with pioneering contributions particularly in hydrogen fuel systems. He has authored six scholarly monographs and published several hundred research papers\, and has played a leading role in collaborations across academia and industry. His work has advanced the development and real‑world deployment of clean transportation solutions\, strengthening the United Kingdom’s innovation capacity in this field. Professor Kendall was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS) in 1993. \nAbstract\nSince 2015\, Professor Kevin Kendall has worked with industry partners in China to reduce urban transport emissions through hydrogen energy and nanocatalysts as alternatives to combustion vehicles. Drawing on these collaborations\, he will discuss how hydrogen and nanoparticle catalysts can support cleaner cities\, alongside Asia’s rapid progress in electrolysers and nanoscale catalyst applications—illustrated by Guangzhou operating roughly one thousand times more ‘London hydrogen buses’ than London itself. He will also outline what it may take for the United Kingdom to position itself as a leading demonstration country for green‑hydrogen electric vehicles. \nDuring the session\, you will learn about: \n\nHydrogen and nano-catalysts for clean transport\nKey observations from China’s rapid progress in electrolysers and nano-applications\nReflections on UK demonstrator pathways for green hydrogen mobility\n\nHow to participate?\nMicrosoft Teams \nMeeting ID: 364 000 857 711 809 \nPasscode: 8PC9pX6t

SUMMARY:Fellowship and Research Funding Application Experience Sharing
DESCRIPTION:Fellowship and Research Funding Application Experience Sharing\nThis event is organised by the EDI Working Group of ABCP as part of its “每月一谈” (“EDI Monthly Talk”) series. \nSpeaker\n \nDr Fabrizia Foglia is Associate Professor in Inorganic and Materials Chemistry from Department of Chemistry\, Unversity College London. She has been awarded awarded an EPSRC Early Career Fellowship (2022). Her main research focuese on high‑performance nanostructure design and how to optimise their performance by carefully tailoring structure-relaxation dynamics correlations. \n \nProfessor Guanjie He a Professor in Materials Chemistry and Engineering\, and an ERC Starting Grant Awardee at UCL. He is serving as Vice-Dean (International) at the Faculty of Mathematical and Physical Sciences. He is a Fellow of Royal Society of Chemistry (FRSC)\, a Fellow of the Institute of Materials\, Minerals and Mining (FIMMM). He has received multiple academic honours\, including the 2023–2025 Rising Star of Science Award\, and co‑founded Element 30 Ltd.\, advancing the commercialisation of zinc‑based energy‑storage systems. \nAbstract\nThis session will focus on two fellowship schemes for early-career scientists: the EPSRC Open Fellowship and the ERC Starting Grant. This session will draw on the speakers’ real application experiences to help participants better understand the key stages of Fellowship and Grant applications. Whether you are currently preparing an application or simply wish to learn more about pathways toward research independence\, you are warmly invited to join this discussion. \nDuring the session\, you will learn about: \n\nHow to craft a persuasive application or project proposal\nHow to navigate the application and interview process effectively\nHow fellowships and grants can shape your path toward research independence\n\nHow to participate?\nMicrosoft Teams \nMeeting ID: 374 477 484 375 754 \nPasscode: iJ7YV2G4
