In Lausanne, between 1000 and 1200 participants are expected to attend. For the first time, three science writers’ associations joined forces to apply: the Swiss Association for Science Journalism, ASJS, the French Association of Science Journalists in the news media, AJSPI, and Science Writers in Italy, SWIM.

The conference provides an opportunity for journalists to explore cutting-edge science as well as crucial issues at the interface of science and society.
