Dear postdoctoral fellows,
We are pleased to announce the call for applications to the
“PIs of tomorrow: The Future of Swiss Research”
session at the next LS2 Annual Meeting 2025 which will be held in Fribourg, 12-13 February 2025. This session offers postdocs interested in an academic career an opportunity to present a plenary talk similar in format to a professorship interview seminar.
Selected participants will have the chance to deliver a 12-minute presentation which should appeal to a broad audience. This talk should also highlight the current achievements of the researcher alongside their proposed future research ideas and aspirations. The talk will be followed by a 14-minute discussion on various aspects of the proposed activity, alongside career-oriented aspects of the presenter. A knowledgeable jury panel of professors will evaluate the presentations.
Two prizes will be awarded, by the Jury and by the Public. As well, all finalists presenting in the session will receive feedback from the jury in a one-on-one private session afterwards focussed on career development and advice. In addition, finalists will have their costs covered to attend the LS2 Annual Meeting 2025, taking advantage of the opportunity to expand or refresh your network in Switzerland via interaction with scientists in and outside your field.
Eligibility criteria:
Applications must be received by October 6th, 2024 (23:59 CET).
