Heine Research Academies (HeRA) are a joint academic institution formed by the graduate academies of the faculties (iGRAD, medRSD and philGRAD) as well as the Junior Scientist and International Researcher Center (JUNO). Together we are supporting your research work by a complementary program of workshops, coaching formats and events.
We would like to support your stay at HHU by offering a variety of helpful information for all doctoral students and postdocs as well as the opportunity to connect with other researchers.
