postgraduate research student
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.

graduate researcher
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.

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.
Something went wrong...
