peer agreement (net): +1graduate researcher Explanation: My guess (and it is a guess) would be that this means someone who has completed a first degree or MSc and is working up to a research degree, eg, PhD candidates. (Kandidat in Danish is someone who has a Master's degree, and the implication is that they are continuing in research after that.) Sorry, haven't time to check today, but it may give you something to work on. |

peer agreement (net): +1postgraduate research student Explanation: In this context "forsker" would usually be a person with a Ph.D. working in a university or research laboratory. "Forskerkandidat" would then be a Ph.D. student, but "postgraduate research student" seems truer to the original text. |

postgraduate researcher Explanation: To my mind there's no need to add the word 'student' since by virtue of being a postgraduate, the person is already a student. Adding the word 'student' seems redundant. |
