I’m part of a small, but innovative, flexible, effective and caring team, namely the DANDRITE support team. The aim of the team is to support our Group Leaders and their groups in their daily work, and ultimately to create the best possible conditions for them to perform research within fields of molecular neuroscience at the top-level.
Please contact me if you are interested in discussing topics such as diversity and inclusion in academia, onboarding, recruitment, scientific event planning or similar.
Event coordinator
I am the main coordinator of scientific events at DANDRITE. DANDRITE takes a proactive role in offering events that support both the community and the individual researcher to be inspired academically, network wise, career wise and in their general well-being. My approach to event planning is structured and holistic, and my aim is to make our events accessible, inclusive and purposeful. I coordinate our DANDRITE Lecture-series, the yearly DANDRITE Retreat, Group Leader Retreat, our yearly open house event DANDRITE Encounters and our outreach participation in the Danish Science Festival, to name some.
Administrative tasks
I perform a variety of administrative services, such as supporting recruitments and extensions, onboarding and welcoming new staff and students, planning of meetings and travels, settlement of accounts, and smaller grant applications. In this role I also act as a link between the researchers and the local university units and thereby facilitating smooth communication and cooperation.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
I work as an advisor and sparring partner on topics in the field of diversity, equity and inclusion together with the support team. My approach is to develop concrete actions in my daily work, that improve the sense of inclusion and the well-being of our staff and students. I insist on asking questions to our norms and investigate how we can keep improving our approaches.
