A researcher’s dream week with Nobel Laureates

by Aurelia Chaise

If you had to choose 20 personalities with whom to spend a fruitful week in research, who would they be? If Nobel Laureates are on your list, the upcoming Lindau meeting is for you!

The 7th Lindau Meeting will take place from 23 to 27 August 2022 where around 500 young economists from all over the world will spend an inspiring week with about 20 Nobel Laureates to exchange experiences and establish valuable contacts in science and beyond.

If you are a current or past Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellow, don’t miss this unique opportunity to network with brilliant minds!

How to apply

To complete their application, future participants must provide the following:

  • Completed application form
  • Statement of motivation: this should briefly explain why you think the participation will be beneficial to you, your research and your career, and your organisation (if relevant). At most half a page (250 words is requested)
  • Individual letter or letters of recommendation written in English, roughly one DIN A4 page/one standard letter size in length and submitted as a PDF file. The letter of recommendation should describe your achievements rather than a description of your institution. A person who knows you well, e.g., your Master’s or PhD thesis supervisor should write the letter avoiding the standard model for several candidates.
  • CV

What’s more, participants must make sure they have the necessary funding (EUR 1 250) and cover their own travel expenses.
