Is there a Student Committee and student activities?

The Student Committee at SAHMRI is chaired by Professor Deb White, Deputy Director Cancer Research, SAHMRI. This Committee meets regularly and is made up of active students within SAHMRI. Students within the Institute are encouraged to actively engage with the Student Committee regarding issues concerning student-life in the Institute.

In addition to the Student Committee, A/Professor Grigori Rhyckov is the Post-Graduate Student Coordinator at SAHMRI. Grigori can be contacted at any stage of your student journey to discuss.
