On behalf of the IUBMB FASBMB SASBMB Organising Committee we are delighted to invite applications from early career researchers to participate in a two-day scientific and networking event prior to the IUBMB 2027 Congress.

The Young Scientist Programme (YSP 2027) will be taking place from Friday 17 to Sunday 19 September 2027 outside the charming town of Stellenbosch at the foot of the Helderberg Mountains (about 50km from Cape Town). It will bring together outstanding PhD candidates and early-career researchers (within 10 years of obtaining their PhD).

The two-day scientific and networking programme will include:

  • Lectures by prominent biochemists and molecular biologists
  • Research presentations by participants
  • A panel discussion with established scientists
  • Social events and networking opportunities

Selected participants will receive a fellowship which includes:

  • Free registration for the IUBMB 2027 Congress.
  • A contribution towards their travel costs.
  • A contribution towards their accommodation costs during the congress.
