PdOC

There are many post-doctoral workers in Cambridge, not all of whom are members of colleges. The post-doctoral lifestyle can sometimes bring with it a sense of isolation and pressure. PdOC is the society for post-docs within the University of Cambridge. It runs social gatherings, film nights and Formal Halls (dining), and publishes its own e-bulletin. It meets informally for lunch each Tuesday at the University Centre, Mill Lane, at 1 p.m.

PdOC is also supported by the Careers Service – which has produced an information sheet for those seeking college membership.

The Chaplain to University Staff is keen to support post-doctoral workers in any way possible.
