The programme

Come and learn how to be an effective and professional researcher - whether you are a PhD student, supervisor, postdoc or junior faculty. 

Focus on skill sets that will be useful throughout your career: time management, rigor and reproducibility, mindfulness and career preparation. Learn about the KI Research schools, programmes and other services that are there for you. Take part in a debate about the relative merits of preclinical and clinical research.

There will be something for everyone during this day when we celebrate the research and doctoral education we offer at KI.
