PhD Community and GP2R: Who are they? What are they doing?

vlnr: Anne-Mare de Vries, Tim Van Den Bossche, Dries Bostyn, Camille Meeussen, Xavier Walthoff-Borm en Jasper Juchem. The launch event of the PhD Community takes place on 23 May. With the support of Ghent University and the Ghent Pre and Postdoc Board (GP2R), it focuses on the togetherness among PhD students. The PhD Community and the Ghent Pre and Postdoc Board (GP2R): these are two new concepts within our university. At first sight with an overlapping target audience. Or is not it? For extra clarification, we had a talk with Xavier Walthoff-Borm and Camille Meeussen - two members of the core board of the PhD Community, and Rob De Staelen and Lieve Balcaen - chairman and vice-chairman of the GP2R. Why is the establishment of a PhD Community at Ghent University important?.
