Thanks to the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters, up to five science journalists will have the opportunity to attend the Kavli Prize in Olso, Norway, Sept. 8-11, 2014. Meet and exchange with the winners of the Kavli Prize awarded in astrophysics, nanoscience and neuroscience.
Get front row seats at the Award ceremony in presence of HM King Harald V. Take part in all the events. The scientific program will include the laureates’ lectures as well as popular science lectures by some of the world’s leading science communicators.
The scholarships cover the costs of transportation from your own country and your stay in Oslo.
