Young Researcher Awards

Each year, the Pezcoller Symposium hosts a poster session dedicated to early-career researchers, offering a unique opportunity to present their work and engage directly with international scientific leaders.

The authors of the top projects are selected by a scientific evaluation committee and have the opportunity to win prizes and recognitions.

Best Poster Lectures

The 3 top abstract submitters will be invited for oral presentation during the plenary session.

Pezcoller-Begnudelli Award

Established in 2003 in memory of Maria Begnudelli, this award is assigned annually to the author of the best abstracts working in Italian institutions.

Today, more than fifty young researchers have received this recognition.
