Administrative & Logistical Support
Our Administrative & Logistic Support team forms the backbone of the center's daily operations, ensuring that researchers can focus fully on scientific discovery. This diverse group handles HR guidance, financial transactions, internal communication, event coordination, liaison with VIB HQ, lab logistics such as goods dispatch and glassware cleaning, IT support for all staff, and the organization of the Center’s Seminar Series. Together, they provide the practical expertise and behind‑the‑scenes work that keeps the Center running smoothly and efficiently.
"From administrative to logistic support, our support team is ready to do whatever it takes to help others focus on what they do best: conducting groundbreaking research." Hilde Govaert, Administrative Director at the Center for Neuroscience.
