LINDAU NOBEL LAUREATE MEETING

                                                      

The 62nd annual Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting will commence on Sunday 1 July, ending on Friday 6 July 2012, on an island off the shores of Lake Constance. This year's meeting is dedicated to Physics and brings together 27 Nobel Laureates and 592 young researchers from 69 countries. 


The format of the meeting consists of plenary lectures every morning by the laureates, which will be live tweeted by a team of official bloggers. The afternoons feature behind-closed-doors mentoring sessions between the Laureates and the young scientists.


The Lindau Meetings are a unique forum for the dialogue between scientists of different generations. During this one week, young researchers from all over the world have the opportunity to establish valuable networks and discuss current and future developments with the authorities in their discipline.


Nature Publishing Group (NPG) and the Foundation Lindau Nobelprizewinners Meetings at Lake Constance will collaborate for the fifth year to produce films featuring Nobel Laureates and young scientists debating important issues in physics.
