Nature has long been a source of inspiration for scientific discovery. From the microscopic to the planetary scale, its complexity and ingenuity continue to guide innovations that shape our understanding of the world—and ourselves. At the Young Scientist Symposium 2025, we’ll explore how uncovering nature’s secrets is advancing science across disciplines and driving meaningful change in society.
Join us on November 18 at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria for YSS25—a dynamic, cross-disciplinary event organized by postdocs, PhD students, and technicians. Whether you’re presenting your research or expanding your scientific network, this is your opportunity to connect, learn, and be inspired.
Come discover where nature will lead us next…

We are delighted to once again give a platform to the ISTA Sustainability Group at this year’s symposium – check out their message below and their booth at YSS25 to hear about their Green Labs Initiative during the opening speeches!
«What is the environmental impact of my research? Try our sustainability quiz and learn from the ISTA Green Labs Initiative and other initiatives about what YOU can do to help make research more sustainable. Our goal is to integrate sustainability in our daily operations and make everybody a climate advocate to obtain the impact needed to mitigate climate change and to prepare young scientist for the challenge ahead.»
