Early Scholars Assembly

The IFSM Early Scholars Assembly brings together 50 early-career scientists recognised for their achievements and IMC20 abstract submissions. It provides a great opportunity to:

ㆍ Participate in round-table discussions with IMC20 plenary speakers, including Q&A sessions.
ㆍ Connect with discipline leaders to discuss career planning and development.
ㆍ Network with fellow early-career researchers and future leaders.

The IFSM ESA program includes an excursion and dinner on Saturday, 29 August  2026, followed by a full-day meeting on Sunday, 30 August 2026.

This program is open to all Ph.D. students and researchers who have completed their degree within the past five years from IMC21. Please note that at least one of your abstracts must be accepted into the IMC21 Congress Program.  

Further details regarding submission deadlines and additional information will follow soon.
