Once every year, around 30-40 Nobel Laureates convene in Lindau to meet the next generation of leading scientists: 600 undergraduates, PhD students, and post-doc researchers from all over the world. The Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings foster the exchange among scientists of different generations, cultures, and disciplines.

The meetings focus alternately on physiology and medicine, on physics, and on chemistry – the three natural science Nobel Prize disciplines. An interdisciplinary meeting revolving around all three natural sciences is held every five years.

Call for Applications

Applications from young researchers in Chemistry for participation at the next Meeting (29 June - 4 July 2025) can be submitted by 16 September 2024.

Candidates must study and/or work in Austria; Austrian citizenship is not required.
