NCMM has a social committee that organizes social activities for NCMM staff, as well as several other standing or ad hoc committees. All NCMM staff may be asked to be part of such committees. Assignments are usually made on a voluntary basis, but group leaders can assign group members if no one has volunteered.

Celebrations and other social events

  • Summer party → The NCMM social committee arranges a yearly summer party for NCMM staff with families. Usually a common barbecue with outdoor games and fun activities.
  • Christmas party → The NCMM Christmas Party Committee arranges the annual Christmas party for NCMM staff.
  • Celebration with cake and bubbly → At NCMM we celebrate grants, new publications, new babies and PhD thesis defenses with cake and bubbly. All are welcome to join in these celebrations.
