EANA Space Factor contest
If you are a student or early career scientist, EANA encourages you to apply for the Space Factor student contest. This contest is a great opportunity for you to present your research to the European Astrobiology community. It gives you the chance to get to know other students in the field; to gain new insights and ideas; to establish new contacts and to develop your own astrobiology network.In this year’s Space Factor students contest, around 10 selected students and early-career researchers will have the chance to present their research to the Astrobiology community, demonstrating their science communication skills toward a multi-disciplinary audience. Each participant will have 6 min total for their presentation (+ 3 to 4 min questions). The presentation will consist of 3 min live talking + 3-min video (as a creative and original part of their presentation, that should work as a valuable aid in communicating the science). The 3-min video can be inserted however the participant prefers (e.g. in the beginning, middle or end of the presentation). A judge panel consisting of ~5 interdisciplinary experts will evaluate the contributions of all participants according to pre-established criteria (e.g. communication skills, quality of research, etc.). Award certificates and monetary prizes will be granted by EANA to the 3 best presentations. More detailed information will follow after the participants are selected.
Application deadline | 15 June 2023, 13:00 CEST |
