Welcome to the website for the UB Postdoc Association (PDA). The PDA was formed in May 2007, as a new organization for the 300 postdoctoral scholars with an affiliation to UB. Our mission is to develop a sense of community for postdoctoral scholars, to address issues that affect us, and to provide a dialogue between the postdoctoral scholars and administration/faculty. An executive committee (EC) has been formed to provide leadership. Monthly meetings of PDA EC are open to all postdocs. The PDA receives advice and funding from the Office of Postdoctoral Scholars.
Our website will be updated regularly with details of upcoming social and career-related events, so keep checking back!
If you would like to receive email notification of upcoming events, please email postdocs@buffalo.edu or subscribe to the UB postdoc email list
