Postdoc Appreciation Week
Postdoc Appreciation Week 2026
21-25 September 2026
We are excited to participate in the the international Postdoc Appreciation Week 2026 - because postdocs all over the world deserve to be recognised for their great contribution to science!
- What's PAW? How do I book events?
It is an entire week packed with stimulating discussions and usefull info sessions for postdocs, organised by universities everywhere.
You can pick and choose your favourite events here. Note: some offers have restricted access on a first come, first served basis, so register early.
Most events are open to everyone identifying as a postdoc from any university. All events are free of charge.
Our contribution
GrACe has teamed up with Health Management and will offer an interactive, two-part workshop on Wednesday, 21 September on balancing the many demands on postdocs' time:
Navigating Complexity: Mental Health during the Postdoc Phase.
Session I - Strengthening Ressources: Self-Regulation and Ressilience in Academia (9-11am)
Session II - Shaping Your Path: Values-based Prioritization and Future Orientation for well-being (11.15-1.15 pm)
The two sessions are closely linked but it is possible to just attend one or the other.
Places are limited, so book early and if you cannot make it, please let us kjnow so that we can offer that place to someone else.
