The annual "Postdoc Appreciation Week" takes place across Germany from 16 to 20 September 2024. The Postdoc Appreciation Week intends to provide attention, visibility and support to postdocs, to promote and highlight existing postdoc networks and services, to create new connections and to integrate international postdocs. Research institutions, organisations and postdoc networks will offer a collective programme with in-person as well as online events and activities specifically for postdocs. Most of the events are open to postdocs from other institutions. As a postdoc from Konstanz you will be able to participate in events and activities all over Germany.
 

The programme is organized by The Munich Postdoc Network and the Research and Innovation Services of the Leibniz University of Hannover (LUH).
