Behind the CV

Story from a Physicist

Members of IoP at different levels of their career share their personal story behind the CV. In an informal atmosphere, they discuss how they became the physicist they are today, and reflect on their path and the challenges they encountered. They discuss the choices they made, their successes and failures, the detours and key events that shaped their career, their insecurities and the people who supported them to become who they are today. Their story behind the CV.

This seminar series is open to all students, PhD candidates and postdocs at IoP and related institutes. We hope that these conversations on the unspoken challenges of life in academia will inspire you, and help you with the decisions and challenges you will face in your career.


This seminar series is inspired from “Growing Up In Science” and other similar events in research institutions abroad. We are very thankful to the speakers for sharing their stories with us.
