Early-Career Researchers at Danish Research Institutions to Speak at "Best of EASD 2023 Webinar Series"

The EASD Early Career Academy (ECA) is organizing a "Best of EASD 2023 Webinar Series" this fall. The EASD ECA committee will select 6-8 candidates trying to ensure the representation of as many associations as possible. The DDEA has been invited to propose possible early-career candidates from research institutions in Denmark who will be attending the EASD Annual Meeting in Hamburg in person and have an accepted abstract.

The "Best of EASD Webinar Series" will be held approximately two weeks after the EASD Annual Meeting, hosted by one of the members of the EASD ECA committee. The selected speakers will give a short presentation (10 min) followed by discussion (5 min) to share their impressions and summarise their highlights of EASD 2023. The speakers of the webinar will be announced in advance on the EASD ECA website and through social media.
