Do you want to meet new people to broaden your academic (and friend!) circles? Sign up for the Spring/Summer edition of the MIT PDA buddy program!
Spring has well and truly sprung, and we hope you are feeling ready to come out of hibernation. The Buddy program, run by the MIT Postdoc Association (PDA) is designed to help postdocs build academically and mentally supportive communities, by grouping you with like-minded peers.
Fill out the google form below to tell us about yourself, and we will match you with 2-3 postdocs with similar preferences. For this chapter of the program, you can opt to either meet in a larger social gathering or small-group meetups:
- The large group gathering will be a coffee meeting on campus (date TBD, coffee and pastries provided), where you can meet your buddy group, as well as mingle with other postdocs at the event.
- In a small group meetup, you will receive a gift card so you can meet your buddy group on your own time for coffee/tea!

The form closes on Friday 6th June, so make sure to fill this out before then!
