The
European Commission published a call for MSCA projects to take part in the
Science is Wonderful! science fair. This annual science fair interactively
showcases MSCA research projects and innovations through hands-on experiments,
science shows, games and fun, inspiring activities. The event has become the
flagship event in Belgium to highlight EU-funded research - showcasing MSCA
researchers and the impact their work has on citizens’ daily lives.
The 2024
edition will take place in-person in Brussels on 25 and 26 April 2024. The 2024
science fair will offer excellent science engagement activities developed by
researchers and projects supported by MSCA, addressing these primarily to
teachers and pupils.
We are
calling on MSCA projects, fellows and alumni to present your research to
approximately 5 000 young visitors over the two days. Applications have to be
submitted by or involve at least one MSCA fellow or alum. Selected projects
will be able to send two people to the fair, including one MSCA fellow/alum and
another (MSCA) colleague, team member, coordinator or supervisor of their
project.
The
deadline for applications is 16 October 2023.
Applications
can be submitted through the dedicated form: https://ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runner/ScienceisWonderfulFair2024
