Young Investigator Fellowships & Educational Grants

Young Investigator Fellowships

EAS Congress programme provides younger, upcoming researchers a prestigious platform from which to launch or progress their international careers. A strong contingent of senior scientists is engaged to interact with and mentor the next generation, in the popular and well attended Science at a Glance sessions. This interaction will be a source of great inspiration and encouragement, and will ultimately strengthen research in the field.

All applicants must fulfill the requirements.
