EU TalentOn - the European Union Contest for early-career researchers is a competition for young scientists (21-35 years old) from European countries and countries associated with the Horizon Europe Programme. The idea is to encourage new, creative solutions to the world's most pressing problems.
About 125 participants will work in 3/4/5-person groups to create a proposal in one of 5 scientific areas (which correspond to the 5 EU Missions in Horizon Europe). The proposals should be scientific, creative, feasible, and convincing: the idea is to encourage a flow of fresh, interdisciplinary ideas, including input from all areas of science and humanities.
5 mission areas:
- Adaptation to Climate Change
- Cancer Prevention and Care
- Restore our Ocean and Water
- 100 Climate-Neutral and Smart Cities
- A Soil Deal for Europe
The total value of the prizes is 75 000 EUR. Deadine to register is May 13th, 2024, 12:00 CET.
The contest is funded by the European Union and will be the flagship event as a part of the celebration of European City of Science Katowice 2024.
