The International Doctoral Research Centre (IDRC; www.idrcentre.org) was created by like-minded researchers who wish to promote excellence in doctoral and post-doctoral research. The IDRC hosts two annual research seminars - the European Research Seminar held in April and the American Research Seminar held in September. For details about locations, submission guidelines, and other information about these annual seminars, please visit www.idrcentre.org. In addition to the two annual seminars, the IDRC publishes an annual journal: the Journal of International Doctoral Research (JIDR). This is the inaugural issue of the JIDR.
