The conference is intended for all European PhD candidates who are doing their PhD before, during or immediately after their MD. The conference will focus on the unique role of MD/PhDs as the link between science and clinical practice. Next to that, this conference is about you, the MD/PhD candidate. The average MD/PhD candidate leads a very busy life working from one deadline to the next, performing lab work, recruiting patients, keeping up with literature, and writing manuscripts whilst all the while, striving to be a great doctor.
