Like a guiding light, the Boost and Exchange Academic Conference (BEACON) supports early career researchers at the Faculty of Psychology in finding new opportunities for scientific exchange, shared learning, and professional development.

The 6th BEACON took place on Friday, September 25, 2026. For more information on BEACON 2026, follow this link. With the 2026 theme, “Question your Science”,  we aimed to foster thoughtful reflection on the way we conduct research - encouraging participants to examine current practices, challenge assumptions, and discuss how we can do better.
