CAPHRI is managed by the Scientific Director and Managing Director.

The Board of Research Line (RL) Chairs consists of the management board together with the research line chairs. The Board of RL Chairs provides accountability to the Management Board and acts as a sounding board, sparring partner and gatekeeper for School council issues. The RL chairs also hold the responsibility for the scientific and financial management of their RL.

CAPHRI’s School Office provides support for individual researchers, departments and research lines on practical, administrative, legal and financial matters regarding all aspects of the research enterprise. This includes staff management (tenure, non-tenure & support staff), accounting, project acquisition and financial project management.

The School Council consists of the Management Board, Board of RL chairs, Head of Departments and Committee Chairs. Their responsibilities include: information of decisions and actions made by the RL- and managing boards, large strategic decisions, content specific presentations, active monitoring of proposed policy and financial accountability.

The CAPHRI PhD representatives represent the interests of all PhD candidates in our institutes. In addition, they also organize formal and informal events for all CAPHRI PhD candidates to join and they communicate important information to our PhD community. This is the current team of representatives:

The advisory board acts as a sounding board for major School decisions and strategy, offering advice, external monitoring and connections to management.
