Lindau, Germany, 1 – 5 July 2013
EUSJA journalists have the opportunity to attend the 63rd Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetingtaking place in Lindau, Germany, from 1 to 5 July 2013.
The scientific programme will be dedicated to chemistry. Over 35 Nobel Prize Winners, about 600 young scientists will meet this July to discuss some promising scientific ideas.
Since 1951, the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings have been bringing together the most esteemed scientists of their times with outstanding young scientists from all over the world. The meetings focus alternately on physiology or medicine, physics, chemistry, and economic sciences.
Every summer around 30 Nobel Laureates and approximately 600 young scientists from up to 70 countries meet in the Southern German town of Lindau for one week – to learn from each other, to exchange knowledge, ideas, and experience, to share their enthusiasm for science, and to make valuable new contacts. The young participants have passed a multi-step international selection process. They stand at the beginning of their careers and strive for excellence in their fields.
In Lindau, lectures, discussion sessions, panels, and science master classes account for the major part of every meeting programme. But the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings deliberately offer an opportunity for inspiration and reflections, for personal encounters and intense talks – in that they distinguish themselves from common scientific conferences. Alongside cutting-edge research, universally important issues like sustainability or the responsibility of scientists in and for the society are of utmost significance for the meetings.
EUSJA journalists will be able to attend the meeting, watch the lectures and discussions and get a fine possibility for interviews.
All applicants shall be employed science journalists, science editors or freelance science journalists assigned by specific media. Public relations officers are not eligible to apply for attendance.
The Lindau Council will cover 4 night accommodation and the journalists will have to pay for their travelling. The applications must be sent only via national associations.
The deadline for the applications is March 31st.
