To support the recognition of emerging young medical
science journalists and their contribution towards public understanding
of science, we will for the fourth time present the “Next Generation of
Science Journalists” Award.
Five outstanding young candidates will be invited to
participate in the World Health Summit 2015, held from October 11-13 at
the Federal Foreign Office in Berlin.
More than 1,200 participants from all health-related
areas will be present at the Summit – from Nobel Prize laureates and
Ministers to CEOs, internationally leading researchers and future
leaders. We are therefore offering a unique international networking and
learning opportunity, for a genuine career head-start. Additionally, we
offer prize money of 500 Euro to recompense travel expenses, and a
certificate, presented by the WHS Presidents Prof. Dr. Detlev Ganten
(Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin) and Prof. Dr. Shunichi Fukuhara
(Kyoto University).
