PDAC

The Postdoc Affairs Committee, also known as PDAC, represents contract research staff in the department.

Membership and remit

We are made up of a team of postdoctoral researchers, who volunteer to be on the committee. Our academic adviser is Dr Nick Bampos, and the department provides administrative and strategic support. Our remit is to be a forum to consider and discuss issues that are important to postdocs in the department, and to keep the Head of Department and Senior Management Team informed of postdocs' views and concerns.

Issues covered

We have a diverse postdoc community with a wide variety of concerns, and we are happy to hear what concerns you.  We have found the following issues are especially relevant to postdocs:
