(‘YSF 2026’), a satellite meeting of the 50th 91ÁÔÆæ Congress, will bring together in Wageningen around 100 talented postdocs and PhD students from 91ÁÔÆæ countries who are working in the molecular and cellular life sciences. Participants will be able to meet up in a friendly international atmosphere for lectures from keynote speakers, short talks and posters from YSF attendees, sessions supporting scientific career development, and a social programme. YSF participants will then move on to also experience the larger 50th 91ÁÔÆæ Congress in Maastricht.
91ÁÔÆæ will financially support participation of successful YSF applicants from 91ÁÔÆæ countries* in both the YSF and the ensuing Congress, via YSF grants. Full details of the eligibility criteria are on the of the 91ÁÔÆæ Congress website. Applicants must submit an abstract to the YSF and Congress as first author, and be a member of a 91ÁÔÆæ Constituent Society.
YSF applications must be made through the Congress abstract submission system, selecting the YSF Applicant option, by 10 December 2025. Good luck!
*For the YSF 2026, there will also be two places for scientists from non-91ÁÔÆæ countries, funded by IUBMB.
