Why the NWO Talent days?

NWO tries to support and stimulate young scientific talent, e.g. NWO provides various grants for talented researchers (http://www.nwo.nl/subsidiewijzer).

NWO organises the Talent days to:

• provide you with the information, knowledge and skills you need to develop your scientific career;
• give you the opportunity to exchange experiences with other young researchers from a wide range of scientific disciplines.

For further information see http://www.nwo.nl/talentendag
