The CRCT postdoc association was created in 2022 by Benoît Aliaga, Chloé Bessière and Steffen Fuchs. It gathers the 31 postdocs (as of March 2023) who are present in our research center. Its goal is to create scientific and social exchanges between postdocs.

Our actions

For this purpose, we have set up several activities that created a very dynamic ambiance at the CRCT:

• A monthly meeting in the form of an afterwork get-together on the last Wednesday or Thursday of the month with a guest researcher from the Toulouse region in order to exchange on our scientific projects and get career advice
• Welcome of new postdocs in the center in order to facilitate their integration, in particular if they are foreign or have disabilities
• Sports and recreational activities
• We are working to set up project exchanges with other associations/programs of postdocs in Europe.

The Young Scientist Cancer Congress (YS2C)

• Organization of an annual young scientist congress on translational cancer research featuring presentation of postdocs and young clinician next to international renowned keynote speakers.
• The first edition took place in Toulouse on October 5, 2023 and was an enormous success (see more).
• We aim to create an annual congress in different sites in South-Western France.
• We are working hard to make this event even more international and found collaboration partners in Germany. More information will follow!
• Stay tuned for the next edition that should take place in Montpellier in October 2024.
