Tomorrow, the CDA will submit a motion to the VAO Science Policy Committee calling for the expansion of the PhD student experiment, which is primarily taking place at the University of Groningen.

The PhD scholarship experiment, which is primarily taking place at the University of Groningen with 850 PhD students, is currently being evaluated. The purpose of the interim evaluation is to determine whether the experiment should be halted.
