Forum on science and research management

The event is aimed at young professionals who are interested in a career in science management and, if possible, are already in their first position in this field, as well as doctoral students and postdocs who are interested in working in science management. The event will focus on the requirements and paths into science management and present various job profiles. The event will also provide an opportunity to make contacts and, if interested, to find out about work shadowing opportunities.

As we have received more registrations than places are available, we ask for your understanding that we had to make a selection. (We strive for a balanced mix between young professionals and those who are interested in entering this field, as well as in terms of sections and gender.)
