By PhD students for PhD students de Duve PhD Students' Society was created with the aim to help PhD students to develop their skills and knowledge by organizing social, academic and ultimately career-related events. The yearly PhD Day, BBQ and PhD Weekend have been in place for many years. A first edition of the PhD Welcome Day, an event dedicated to new incoming PhD students, was organized in the Fall of 2021. Ultimately, a ball and a job fair could bring together PhD students from all of UCLouvain Health Sciences institutes. The Society consists of ~11 motivated members spread across different projects: The Society is looking for more members to help support current projects or develop new ideas. Do not hesitate to reach out! For more information, please contact Christophe Vanderaa. |
