A Special THANK YOU to our SPONSOR

By PhD students for PhD students

de Duve PhD Students' Society was created with the aim to help PhD students to develop their skills and knowledge by organizing social, academic and ultimately career-related events.

The yearly PhD Day, BBQ and PhD Weekend have been in place for many years. Other projects will soon be a reality, such as a dedicated website and social media, as well as a PhD Welcome Day. Ultimately, a ball and a job fair could bring together PhD students from all of UCLouvain Health Sciences institutes.

The team consists of ~15 motivated members:
. Simon Boutry (President), Raquel Rodriguez Alonso (Vice-President), Anna Diacofotaki (Treasurer), Eleonore Pairet (Secretary)
. Anna Diacofotaki (IC Skill Up!), Nathalie Kyalu Ngoie Zola (IC BBQ), Gabriel Levy (IC Welcome Day), Amaury Stommen (IC PhD Day), Christophe Vanderaa (IC Website)
. Alina Alexandru, Martina De Bortoli, Elisa Pierre, Léna Puigdevall, Juliette Vanderroost
