Every two years, iGRAD doctoral students elect two representatives from among their ranks to represent their interests on the iGRAD Executive Board. The current doctoral student representatives are (in alphabetical order): Johanna Hallenberger (Anatomy 2) and Anna Hamacher (Center for Advanced Imaging), with Florian Lingnau (Neuropathology) acting as deputy.
As doctoral student representatives, we serve as the point of contact for all doctoral students in iGRAD. We bring your concerns and interests to the Executive Board and advocate for your perspectives to be taken into account in decision-making processes. At the same time, we support you with questions and challenges related to your doctoral studies and promote exchange and networking among doctoral candidates. In this way, we aim to actively help shape doctoral conditions and improve them for everyone.
To get in touch with us, please use our functional email address (see Contact).
