Postdoc Network

Postdoc life can mean many different things. It can involve many new things such as moving to a new country, testing out new fields of research, managing an independent research grant, starting a family life and much more. While this can all be fun and exciting, it can also be overwhelming. Knowing others in the same boat as you, is almost always a win! This is why the BIO Postdoc Network exists!

The BIO Postdoc Network is for postdocs and assistant professors at the Department of Biology and is organized by the BIO Postdoc Committee. For postdoc by postdocs.

The aim is to unite postdocs across the Department in a safe, meaningful, and sustainable network that facilitates career development and a sense of belonging.

The BIO Postdoc Network started in 2021 with it primary mission to create a profesional and supporting network. We are approx. 100 postdocs and throughout the year we organize events about career opportunities, project management, grant writing, teaching etc. - but also the fun and social events are important as you can see below.
