What is the EU TalentOn?  

It is a new contest especially developed for early career researchers. Young ambitious researchers working together on challenges related to the five EU Missions. In Leiden, European City of Science 2022, the researchers will be working on solutions for climate adaptation, beating cancer, smart cities, and achieving healthy soils and waters. This pressure cooker event takes place in Leiden coming September.
