LAP Newsletter

July 2023

Dear fellow PhD candidates,

As the academic year is coming to an end, let's hope storm Poly will stay away so we can enjoy beautiful summer days at the beach. To kick off the summer season, we are organizing a boat trip through the lovely canals of Leiden on the 27th of July. Also, the LUMC has created a Research Q&A forum where you can share and find expertise as LUMC researcher. Read all about this in July's newsletter. 

We are also looking for new board members, so if you are interested, send your CV and a short motivation to lap@lumc.nl.

Best wishes,
The LAP board

Converis feedback form
In order to bring your PhD to an end successfully, you need to upload several things in Converis. Converis also contains lots of information that you can use throughout your PhD. Unfortunately, we are aware that Converis is not always very user friendly. Therefore, we are trying to organize a session with the Graduate School and the technician to make some changes. Please fill in this feedback form about Converis, your suggestions would be very helpful!

Get set… go!' is an article in the Graduation Magazine for young Almuni, the magazine for Leiden University alumni. If you are between 22 and 27 years old and willing to do an interview on your first job and how you got it, we are looking for you! If you are interested, send an email before July 13.

Research Q&A Forum
This forum is the go-to place to easily share and find expertise as LUMC researcher. Reach all colleagues with the right expertise, irrespective of whether you already know them. Share knowledge efficiently. Answer once, but help anyone with a similar question in the future: your post will stay and can be found back easily. All information stays confidential.
