MUSC Postdoctoral Association (PDA)

A group of students speak together somewhere outdoors.

Welcome to the MUSC Postdoctoral Association! 

The MUSC PDA is a postdoc-led organization that seeks to provide support and a voice for the concerns of the Postdoctoral community at MUSC. 

 

What we do:  

  • Postdoc Advocacy: Your PDA Executive Board officers welcome requests, complaints, and concerns and will advocate for change through the proper channels.
  • Participation in monthly networking events and orientation
  • Career development activities: Bi-monthly events open to all MUSC postdocs.
     

Contact your Postdoctoral Association Executive Board with concerns, questions, and ideas for events.
