Details of individual speakers in each session will be available from early March. Tickets are still available at discounted rates, and registrations completed before 1 May will also receive a complimentary annual digital and print subscription to Nature Magazine. You can register to attend ESOF
here. Media delegates can take the opportunity to apply for the Nature media travel grant and early career researchers can apply for the
Early Career Researcher Grant, which will help towards the cost of travel and accommodation when attending ESOF in the summer, as well as complimentary tickets to the conference itself. With so much world-class science happening in the conference venue, it stands to reason that it should be brought outside too; Manchester will come alive with science with the Science in the City Festival taking to the streets for a week long science extravaganza from 22-29 July. Experiments, activities and conversations will engage diverse audiences in the
excitement of discovering new perspectives and solving new challenges. Innovation in the region’s business, arts, cultural, science and engineering communities will be celebrated. Ambitious partnerships and collaborations will create new opportunities to explore how science connects to our daily lives and to imagine the possibilities for the future. 2016 will be a fantastic year for science in Europe, we can't wait for you to celebrate with us in Manchester this July. Professor Brian Cox, celebrated presenter and author from The University of Manchester sums it up: “Manchester in some sense was the very first scientific city; it was where the industrial world began. To see cutting edge science and innovation return to the city’s beating heart seems to me to be very fitting. Most importantly of all I think, will be the opportunity for young people to see up close those scientific innovators at the very forefront of discovery who are changing our world for the better.”
