Calling All Public Health Researchers!

Are you passionate about public health and inspired by beautiful surroundings? Then GRASPH is the event for you! Join us at GRASPH to be inspired by keynote speakers while gaining fresh perspectives on your own research. The program is designed to foster natural networking opportunities with peers, helping you build valuable connections. Whether you are a junior researcher finding your path or a senior researcher looking to amplify your impact, mark your calendar for May 11-12.

What is GRASPH?
The national network for research training on public health, GRASPH, organizes a Summer School once a year. The Summer Schools are arranged by an organizing committee consisting of both seniors and younger researchers from the four Danish universities, and the chairmanship rotates each year. In 2026, Aalborg University (AAU) is responsible for the meeting, and we cordially invite both PhD students and their supervisors to take part in the event. PhD students can participate regardless of whether their supervisor is participating or not.

The programme includes keynote lectures, workshops, and - something highly valued - a discussion of issues related to each individual PhD student’s project. In addition, it is a great opportunity to meet peers, network, and learn about what is happening at other universities.

Based on evaluations from recent years, we have made some adjustments to the programme, giving slightly more time for networking and for plenary presentations of some of the PhD students’ projects, as a supplement to the focused discussion sessions.

Where is GRASPH held?

Traditionally, we have held GRASPH in Korsør, but as Klarskovgård unfortunately burned down in December 2025, we have had to move the course to Bygholm Park in Horsens.

We hope many of you will participate and help continue the tradition! – even under new circumstances
