This 2-day symposium, the third in its series, offers early-career researchers in life sciences an opportunity to connect, gain inspiration, and exchange ideas about research involving X-rays and neutrons. Participants will enjoy scientific talks from peers, career insights from professionals, proposal-writing guidance for MAX IV and ESS, and facility tours. Open to PhD students and postdocs, the event takes place in person at LINXS, fostering networking and collaboration.
