About this Event
EuroSTEMPeers is the European chapter of the global non-profit organization STEMPeers (https://stempeers.org), which aims to connect early-stage STEM researchers to seek collaborations and guidance for transitioning into industrial, academic, and entrepreneurial roles. After successfully hosting three in-person conferences (Brno 2018, Berlin 2019, Heidelberg 2023) and two virtual conferences in 2020 and 2021, we have introduced a unique stage for young researchers to network with seasoned professionals and take advantage of the STEMPeers network in building their future roadmap to success.
This year we are excited to host EuroSTEMPeers 2024 with our co-organizers BioLabs. Besides the career transition stories that we will dwell upon, EuroSTEMPeers 2024 will also focus on other highly relevant topics such as empowerment, upskilling, understanding core strengths, and discussing key issues like mental health.
