The MCAA Poster Stand for Young Researchers at ESOF in July
Dear All,
After successful poster session which we had in Venice and our successful participation in ESOF 2014, now we have a new opportunity to meet and cooperate again! Read below about special opportunity arranged for our members!
On 23-27 July in Manchester will be held Euroscience Open Forum which is prestigious and the largest general science conference in Europe. It gathers together 4 500 participants – prominent scientists (including Nobel laureates), policy makers, journalists, business sector and young researchers. The ESOF offers a reach programme, including Career, Science and Business sessions, which you can consult at their website:

On the basis of special cooperation with the ESOF organisers, the MCAA has received excellent opportunities within the Career Programme. One of them is the MCAA Poster Stand for Young Researchers which is organised with aim to give you opportunity to present your work at such a large and respected auditorium, as well as to obtain funding from your institutions to cover travel costs. The link to the call is on the MCAA Home page and you can find it also below:

Our ESOF friends have already provided an excellent promotion for the MCAA. In the special issue of their newsletters focused on the Career issues sent to several tens of thousands of addresses, they have specially highlighted our session and the Call for Abstracts. This gives a strong significance to the session and the MCAA.
Please read the call carefully and note here some practical tips and info:
-
The call does not have age restriction – all ESR, post-docs and other young researchers are welcome
-
It is open to all young researchers, not only MCAA members in order to support networking and promote MCAA goals among broader community
-
The deadline for submission of abstracts is 31st March, so hurry up with submissions in order to reserve your place
-
A Book of abstracts with the ISBN will be published on-line after the conference, in order to give you internationally valuable scientific reference for the presented work
-
ESR can benefit prom special low rate registration fees directly from the ESOF organisers
-
For the MCAA fellows who do not belong to the ESR category, the MSCA has arranged a special lower rate, which is the same as for Euroscience members – please, bare it in mind when you register.
-
Please, promote this Call on social media and within your Chapters and networks within and beyond the MCAA!
I would also like to remind you that the MSCA ESOF satellite event starts immediately after the ESOF main event, and will be held on 28-29 July. The registration for this MSCA event is free and open to all MSCA fellows (however, not open for general public). This is an excellent opportunity for you to attend the both events (main and satellite) and obtain the funding from your institutions.
I truly hope to see you in Manchester in July!
Best wishes,
Snezana
