London – The Italian Embassy in London invites young Italian researchers across the United Kingdom to submit applications for its annual research award programme “Italy Made Me”, to honour the accomplishments of young Italian researchers in several academic domains. The awards will be presented to Italian researchers operating in the United Kingdom who received part of their education in Italy, in recognition of innovative research conducted in each of the three European Research Council (ERC) domains: Life Sciences (LS), Physical and Engineering Sciences (PE), Social Sciences and Humanities (SH). This initiative is coordinated by the Italian Embassy in London, in collaboration with il Circolo, the Association of Italian Scientists in the United Kingdom (AISUK) and other Italian academic associations across the UK. The deadline for applications is the 15 May 2017. The awards will be presented during the “Conference of Italian academics and researchers in the U.K.” which will be held at King’s College London on 30 June 2017. (9colonne)
