Advocacy Committee

Current Members:
Aditi Joshi - Chair
Elizabeth Marlow
Christian Abraham
Dimitrios Vatakis

The Advocacy Committee exists to identify and address problems and concerns of postdocs that should be brought to the attention of university administration. Typical problems most postdocs encounter are insufficient salary, housing problems, lack of childcare options, deficient mentoring, and visa troubles. The committee will provide information about policies in UCLA, concerned officials and a forum to share your experiences. By contacting committee members directly, or posting to the forum, postdocs can bring problems to the committee's attention.

The committee is always seeking new members. We typically meet no more than once a month over lunch to discuss any new issues and brainstorm potential solutions. If you are interested in joining this committee, email Aditi: aditi.draditi at gmail dot com Read more »
