Great start to the TReND Doctoral Network!

The TReND Doctoral Network has successfully commenced its activities with a virtual kick-off meeting on March 6th hosted by the coordinators at the University of Münster. During this meeting important topics for the successful launch of the network were discussed. This included the formation of  the Supervisory Board, which will be the key decision making body within the TReND consortium. The next big step for TReND is the recruitment of 12 doctoral candidates, which are expected to start between September and November 2024 and will each work towards their Ph.D. by carrying out an individual research project within TReND.
