Main content

At the Department of Biological Sciences (BIO), a network group for early career scientists has been established to provide a professional-social arena for exchanging experiences and professional development for early career scientists.  In this context, the group is defined primarily as PhD- and Postdoctoral fellows, including PhD candidates admitted to the PhD programme at BIO but employed elsewhere (e.g. IMR, the Michael Sars Centre, the University Museum.)

The group serves as a platform to strengthen individual early career scientist’s integration into the larger BIO community by providing a network which allows its members to get to know each other across disciplines and research areas.

The group’s overall goal is to enhance the well-being and professional development among early career scientists at BIO.

In addition, the group serves as a communication link to and from the department management in matters of significance to the early career scientists’ group.
