Why Attend?
During the event, we will introduce of our new network, explore the benefits of such networks, and delve into the various factors that contribute to a successful postdoc phase. We believe that success is not solely determined by securing a subsequent professorship. Instead, we will explore a broader set of key performance indicators such as personal growth, identifying one's own interests and values within the professional environment, determining career goals, developing a professional network, and maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
