Recruitment & Training

This working group currently focuses on the development of the following questions:

  • Sharing best practices on mentoring programmes at the institutes
  • A common training platform in the EU-LIFE institutes
  • A database of courses organized in EU-LIFE institutes for PhD students & postdocs, with the aim to identify gaps & synergies and potentially team up to apply for funding

In 2021 a hands-on guide for research institutes on postdoc career support in the life sciences was published. This hands-on guide is based on discussions in the working group and written by its members.
