Navigating Academic Careers

This year, the RTG 2753 launched the series “Navigating academic careers”, an opportunity for our PhD students and postdocs to get to know the career paths of PIs and the peculiarities of the academic career system. In each session, a PI talks about the decisive points in their career journey and shares advice on dealing with the challenges of academia, with plenty of space for questions and exchange.

The series was kicked-offin July with by our speaker Lars Schwabe. Our PIs Simone Kühn and Christian Büchel hosted the sessions in August and November, respectively. All three sessions inspired lively exchange between the PIs and our PhD students and postdocs. We are looking forward to continuing the series in 2027!
