A web PhD-community in progress

A virtual community for PhD students involved in Q-PorkChains has been developed. PhD students in the areas of pig and pork production is joining.

- We have taken the initiative to create a PhD virtual community because it will benefit both the PhD students and our project. PhD students from all over the world can share knowledge, ideas, practical challenges and network in the same areas that Q-PorkChains cover. Furthermore, the plan is to make different activities later in the project directed specifically towards PhD students and young scientists, Mette Christensen explains.

 

The community will be a dynamic place to share knowledge and discussions.

 

- I am certain, that initiatives that focus on stimulating increasing interaction between young scientists and PhD students are important to reach new results and inventions in the pig and pork production chain. Especially a huge, collaborative project like ours is the perfect frame for this kind of creativity, Mette Christensen finishes.
