The NuFFER Kick-off Meeting will take place on Friday afternoon, 26 September 2025, just after the closure of the EuNPC2025 conference. This meeting marks the official launch of an exciting new forum dedicated to supporting early-career researchers (ECRs) in nuclear physics across Europe.
The NuPECC Forum For Early-career Researchers (NuFFER) is a platform dedicated to support early-career researchers (ECRs) in nuclear physics across Europe. Established under NuPECC's guidance, NuFFER aims to build up a strong, connected, and visible community of ECRs, ensuring that their voices are represented in discussions influencing the future of nuclear physics research. The forum supports ECRs' professional and personal development by promoting networking opportunities with senior researchers, advocating for career advancement, and organizing workshops on key topics. The NuFFER steering committee, composed of representatives from all NuPECC member countries, ensures that diverse perspectives are heard. NuFFER will strengthen ECR engagement in scientific and policy dialogues, through regular meetings and annual events, contributing to a more inclusive and dynamic nuclear physics community.
The NuFFER initiative will be presented and the feedback from both young researchers and experienced professionals will be greatly considered in advancing the development of this community, ensuring its success and relevance in the field.
