🎓🧬 To PhD or Not to PhD: Make the Decision with Insight
Thinking about doing a PhD but not sure if it is the right path for you?
Join Synapse Aarhus for an afternoon dedicated to one of the biggest career questions in life science: Should I do a PhD, or should I explore another path?
This event is designed to give students the information, perspectives, and honest insights they need before making the decision.

🧭 Decision-making insight: why people choose a PhD, and why others choose not to
🏛️ Graduate school guidance: learn about applications, tracks, funding, and structure
💼 Career paths: explore opportunities in academia, industry, and beyond
🎤 Honest talks from different speakers with different study and career journeys
🤝 Networking and discussion with students, speakers, and fellow life science peers
