Travel Grants
[All calls for travel grants to ESOF2022 are closed]
For young aspiring researchers, including Postdocs, PhD candidates and master students, ESOF is an excellent opportunity to get immersed in Europe’s largest general science conference, learn about new discoveries in a large number of fields, meet Nobel laureates and young researchers across disciplines.
- ESOF enables them to discuss career perspectives and participate in lively science policy debates with major European and national politicians and get an insight into science to business perspectives. Hundreds of journalists and media will cover the event and contribute to the enthusiastic atmosphere.
- ESOF includes a Careers track specifically dedicated to the interests and concerns of PhD students, young post-docs and early-career researchers. In accordance with the EuroScience spirit, special attention is put on the relationship between Science and Society.
- ESOF provides young researchers with a unique opportunity to meet and engage with leading scientists withing their field as well as from fields outside their own speciality.
We believe that as many young researchers and students as possible should be able to participate in ESOF2022. We have therefore raised funds to make it possible for some of them to learn from and contribute to the conference.
