72nd Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting

Logo of the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings

Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings

The 72nd Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting gives 500 to 600 outstanding young scientists the opportunity to discuss key questions in physiology/medicine with about 30 Nobel laureates.

Who can apply?

Requirements for applicants include the following:

Nominated participants shall

  • show a genuine interest and engagement in science and research,
  • show excellence in their principal field of studies, i.e. in life sciences in relation to biomedicine,
  • receive very strong support of their application by their academic advisor and/or by an internationally renowned scientist, who knows the applicant well; a detailed letter of recommendation is indispensable for the application,
  • deliver a comprehensive CV together with their application,
  • be fluent in English and prepared to actively participate in discussions with laureates and young scientists,
  • belong to the top 5 per cent of their class,
  • normally not have a permanent position, as this is a criterion for exclusion except in special cases,
  • be not older than 35 years of age at the date of the meeting with exceptions (e.g. parental leave, etc.),
  • not have participated on-site in a previous Lindau Meeting,
  • deliver fully completed applications in their online profiles on or before the deadline in November 2022 (responsibility of the nominated individuals; incomplete applications will not be considered)
  • commit themselves to being present in Lindau for the full duration of the meeting.

What form does funding take?

The main scholarship benefits are as follows:

  • one-time participation in the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting (25 to 30 June 2023)
  • conference costs covered; travel expenses are not normally covered
  • after the event: inclusion in the Lindau Alumni Network

When is the closing date for applications?

The academic partners nominate their candidates for the meeting between late September and end of October 2022. Young scientists seeking nomination should therefore contact their local academic partner before October. Open applications, for scientists who are studying or performing research in a country where the Lindau Meetings have no official academic partners, can be submitted from 20 September to 18 October 2022.

Terms and conditions of application
