Postdocs play a crucial role in the lab, balancing research, mentorship and being the glue that holds the lab together. Monday 15th to Friday 19th September is National Postdoc Appreciation week (#NPAW2025), and the perfect time to give recognition for the significant contributions that postdocs make to research.

Pint of Science has teamed up with Proteintech to organise free life science events at universities across the UK to celebrate the achievements of postdoctoral researchers. Please note, these events are for staff and students at the institutions and not for the public.

Thanks to our sponsor:
