PhD Students' Association

An important point is the creation of attractive fringe benefits and a good working environment that invites individuals to undertake research at one of Europe's largest dental faculties. The ACTA PhD Students' Association serves as the primary point of contact for all of ACTA’s PhD students. Members keep the PhD students informed about events such as the graduation of fellow PhD students, interesting lectures, symposiums and meetings, by means of the familiar, colourful newsletter.

In addition, the PhD Students' Association helps to organize the Scientific Afternoon Meetings. These are mandatory bi-monthly afternoon gatherings at which PhD students present their research results and discuss them with fellow PhD students. To enable fellow doctoral students to get better acquainted with one another, in an informal setting, the PhD Students' Association stages ‘PhD outings’ every six months.

The ACTA PhD Students' Association has roughly four to six members, all of whom, of course, are attached to ACTA: 

Chairman/woman      
Janice Overman, Oral Cell Biology 

Members                 
Greetje Renders, Functional Anatomy
Jenny Vermeer, Oral Cell Biology
Catherine Volgenant, Cariology Endodontology Pedodontology and Microbiology
