Postdoc Appreciation Week, 18 - 22 September 2023

Inspired by Postdoc Appreciation Weeks in the USA and the UK, a similar initiative was launched in Germany in 2022. The aim is to focus on postdocs for a week, to make their achievements in research and teaching, but also their needs visible, and to bundle events for this target group throughout Germany. BYRD takes part in the second Postdoc Appreciation Week (September 18 - 22) and cordially invites you to a networking event on September 19.
