Course schedule

You will first complete the E-module “Integrity in academic publication: authorship and peer review” via the ULearning portal. The organizer (department of Medical Physiology) will contact you about the ULearning platform. You have 3 weeks to complete the E-module (~4 hours of work). You have to complete the E-learning before the plenary session.

Important note: you have until 5 days before the start of the plenary session, to gain access to the e-learning module. If you won’t be able to get access, the cancellation and no show policy of the GSLS (that was also shared with you in the confirmation mail) will be applicable. You will be charged a no show fee and can’t attend the plenary session. So make sure to get access in time.

Opening E-learning

One-hour physical plenary session (location at Utrecht Science Park)

Course certificate                                

You will receive a course certificate after actively participating the E-Learning and the plenary session.

Cancellation and No-show policy

This course is free for GSLS PhD candidates. However: free of charge does not mean free of responsibility. Once you have signed up for a course, we expect you to attend. For every late cancellation or no-show we have had to disappoint others who would have liked to attend. This is our policy:

• You may cancel free of charge up to 4 weeks before the start of the course. After this date you can only cancel if you have a GSLS PhD candidate to replace you in the course. Send the name and contact information of your replacement to pcc@uu.nl, at least 2 working days before the start of the course;
• We expect that you actively attend the full course. It is mandatory to complete the E-module and to attend the plenary session;
• Not meeting the above requirements means you will be charged a no-show fee (€ 50). We will send the invoice after the course has ended. We are unable to make any exceptions, unless you have a valid reason (i.e., illness or death in the family 1^st/2^nd degree or partner). Your supervisor has to send an e-mail to pcc@uu.nl indicating the reason.

Unfortunately we don’t offer this course for participants not part of the GSLS. Our courses tend to be fully booked by GSLS PhD candidates.
