The EUROGIN 2024 Young Scientists Award

The Young Scientists Award session will be presented in connection to the Congress Welcome Ceremony on Thursday, March 14, 2024.

Dr. Dave Hawkes (Australia) and Dr. Jesper Bonde (Denmark) will host the Young Scientists Award at EUROGIN 2024.

Here, 5 selected finalists will have a 5-minute pitch to present their project to a jury panel. We are not looking for the usual scientific presentation! Instead, the contestants will be evaluated by a jury assigning points 0-10 for the following elements for a max of 50 points

Adherence to time
Clarity of project aim / news worthiness
Clarity of data presentation/ conclusions / perspectives of research
Format of presentation
X-factor

When the presentations are complete, the Jury´s score will be announced with the winner of the 1000€ Young Scientists Award.
