The Awards Ceremony will be held in during spring 2025. The exact date, venue and modality will be confirmed when the results are announced.

The projects of applicants, who wish to enhance their scientific profile by working at a research institution different from the laboratory of origin receive a note of merit by the Scientific Board.
