Postdocs – help us design the National Postdoc Conference 2023
Campus in Autumn.
Loughborough University and C-DICE are proud to announce that we will have been selected by Vitae and the UKRSA to host the National PostDoc Conference 2023. It will take place on campus during Postdoc Appreciation Week on 19 September 2023 and ALL postdocs are welcome.
The Transitions and New Horizons conference for postdocs will be a platform to celebrate the impact and contribution of postdocs in changing the world for the better. It will be a chance to convene the postdoctoral community for building networks, sharing experiences, developing careers and equipping postdocs to thrive in their current role and beyond.

This is a conference for postdocs by postdocs so we need YOUR help. We are recruiting postdocs from all disciplines to join the conference steering group.
