The fourth edition of the ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ Postdoc Day took place on 9 June 2026 at Hof van Liere on the Stadscampus. For the first time, the event was organised as a full-day programme. Organised by RIVA and the HR Department, it brought together postdocs and final-year PhD researchers for a day of learning, professional development, career exploration and networking.
- Morning (09:00 – 12:00): Participants attended in-depth workshops on career self-insight, managing perfectionism and grant writing.
- Networking lunch (12:00 – 13:00): During lunch, postdocs connected with fellow researchers and expanded their professional networks.
- Afternoon (13:00 – 16:00): Plenary sessions and short pitches on postdoc initiatives were followed by break-out sessions on life after postdocs, valorising research and science communication. The programme also featured a debate on postdocs as future leaders and concluded with a quiz.
