Postdoc Association
The Mission of the Post-Doc Association for the Max Planck Institute for Heart and Lung Research is to act as a unified representational body for Post-Doctoral Researchers employed by the MPI-HLR for promoting career support and development.
We aim to accomplish this by:
- Using elected representatives to communicate with the administration
- Organizing interdepartmental and external training events (including invited speakers)
- Providing a hub for Post-Doc informational resources on the intranet: follow this link to open the intranet
- Acting as representatives for the MPS PostdocNet which provides additional resources here: http://www.postdocnet.mpg.de/
These resources will include but are not limited to:
- Guest House information/Moving tips (apartment hunting, listings for apartments of soon-to-be-moving-away members etc.)
- Foreign language resources
- Information about Bad Nauheim (Shopping, Banks, Doctors, Mobile Carriers)
- Calendar for events/national holidays (i.e. when stores are closed)
