RETRAIN

The RETRAIN is a newly established interdisciplinary network of selected PhD students and their supervisors, mostly junior PIs. It is coordinated by Dr. Lisa Melymuk and Dr. Iva Sovadinová and supervised by dedicated RETRAIN advisory board formed by senior professors from RECETOX, UCL and ETH.

The main aims of RETRAIN are following:

To support and generate excellent research & improve scientific publishing (an increase in the quality & quantity of scientific publications)
To support multidisciplinary research and collaboration (e.g. joint publication & projects)
To create and support a research collaborative environment for brainstorming new ideas, planning and implementing projects
To improve the quality of supervision by junior PIs

The key elements of the RETRAIN are the the junior PIs, who constitute the core team of this network, and associated PhD students. The RETRAINers are continuously collaborating both scientifically and in other areas of their professional life.

Their formal networking activities consist of:

Monthly discussion-focussed group meetings
Research project updates and research discussions, student development plans, etc.
Online Teams group for sharing information on courses (within MU and online), seminars and webinars of interest, planning lab rotations
Annual retreat for brainstorming, team buildings.
