Outline
The MGK aims at providing young researchers working within the subprojects of CRC 940 with the highest-standard theoretical, empirical, and methodological proficiency and at integrating them in an excellent and stimulating interdisciplinary environment for performing outstanding research, for efficiently achieving their PhD, and for building up international networks. Its objectives are to support all participating young scientists in the autonomous planning and conducting of research on a sound theoretical and methodological basis, to extend their field of research with original scientific contributions, to communicate and defend their results internationally at scientific meetings and in peer-reviewed publications, and to acquire key qualifications necessary for the advancement of their scientific careers. The MGK curriculum comprises a series of (i) Lectures and (ii) Schools, held by invited experts in the cognitive-affective neurosciences as well as by members of the CRC. The acquisition of theoretical and methodological knowledge will be complemented by training courses in (iii) Skills in scientific techniques (neuroimaging, programming, statistics, modeling etc.) as well as in scientific writing and presentation. Additionally, this program element will include key skills necessary for successful scientific careers such as rhetoric and language skills as well as management and teaching abilities. Finally, (iv) Support throughout our students' project work will be provided by their supervisors and a co-supervisor, by annual self-organized retreats, and by a travel award. Special emphasis will be put on fostering the achievement of women in science and the compatibility of career development and family care for young parents.

Events
Open Science Workshops
With this e-learning module, we would like to support you in conducting your research efficiently and transparently according to the rules of good scientific practice. To this end, this module combines three workshops:
- Workshop 1: Good Scientific Practice
- Workshop 2: Research Data Management
- Workshop 3: Research Transparency First part: February 2nd 2022 (Wednesday) from 1 to 6pm; Second part: to be announced
For each workshop, online content is provided, but there will also be virtual or presence meetings of one to two days to follow up on essential issues of each workshop. You are free to go through the online content of each workshop as your times allows, but you are required to attend the respective meetings to follow up on the online content of each workshop during the initial period of your doctoral studies. Be assured that you will find the topics dealt with most helpful for your scientific work.
