Call for researchers – Bessensap

On Friday 12 June 2015, the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO) and the Dutch association for Science Journalism and Communication (VWN) will jointly host Bessensap in The Hague. Each year, Bessensap brings together over 400 journalists, educators, and researchers under the motto “Science meets the Press”. Submit your proposal by email by Tuesday 24 February 2015.

To help shape the programme, the NWO is looking for researchers who are interested in presenting their own research to a large audience of science journalists, communicators, and other interested parties.

We are therefore calling on all interested UM researchers to submit their proposals!

NWO
The NWO is looking for researchers who have made their mark on the scientific community and can present their field of expertise with passion and authority. The NWO also welcomes talented young researchers who are conducting promising research in their fields. The presentations should have a current, newsworthy, and media-friendly angle. Examples of topics include recently research findings or anticipated results, new scientific insights, and new research directions. NWO is also looking for speakers to present a more general update on their discipline.

Proposal submissions
A presentation at Bessensap lasts fifteen minutes, followed by a five-minute question and discussion round. Presentation proposals must be submitted by email by Tuesday 24 February 2015. For questions or help with your proposal, please contact the UM Press Office by email at press@maastrichtuniversity.nl or via tel. 85222.
