We have an active Technician committee that organizes activities for research technicians from Amsterdam UMC, Sanquin and GGD.

The committee focuses on the organization of:

  • Social activities: among which meet & greets, typical Dutch 'borrels', and retreats
  • Seminar sessions: to learn new techniques and get to know interesting companies
  • Technique exchange program

If you are interested to join the Technician committee, please send an email to aii@amsterdamumc.nl.
