As part of the European project Science Comes to Town, the third edition of EU TalentOn is on the way. During this five-day scientific contest, a group of selected young researchers between the ages 21 and 35 years old from all over Europe will work in teams to come up with the best scientific solutions for challenges linked to one of the five EU Missions:
- Adaptation to Climate Change
- Cancer Prevention and Care
- Restore our Ocean and Water
- Climate-Neutral and Smart Cities
- A Soil Deal for Europe
The contest finale will take place between 7 and 11 September 2026 in Brest, France.
