I am happy to share that I have been elected as the Dual (Internal/External) Representative of the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research (@MPIDRnews) at the @maxplanckphdnet.

Given the shifting dynamics in popular higher study destinations like the USA, I believe MPIs in Germany are better alternatives for doctoral candidates. MPG provides a supportive and inclusive environment, with excellent funding and mentorship.
