Other A new round of the Amsterdam UMC Research Mentoring Program is open for registration! The program welcomes all academics under the Amsterdam UMC umbrella to join this program, which is meant for researchers affiliated to Amsterdam UMC research institutes from all levels.

In the seminar 'Team Science: How we learn, share, value and reward teamwork in science’ we will explore the added value of teamwork in research teams, how team achievements can be better recognised and rewarded, how to overcome common obstacles, and how we can give team science a stronger place in education. Research performance is often still linked to a single lead author, while the work itself is carried out by team members with diverse roles and contributions.
