Mental Health Support for PhD candidates
During your PhD you might encounter situations that impact your mental health wellbeing. Think of high workload, misbalance between work and personal situation, how to deal with responsibility, uncertainty, insecurity and poor communication with supervisor. Please keep in mind that you don’t have to deal with these problems on your own! The OOA, PhD council, Amsterdam UMC Doctoral School and NKI-AvL offer many ways and levels of support to help you during your PhD.
Please check for more information about the support we organize:
