Are you a young scientist with a passion for communicating your research?

Entries are still open for a national competition aimed at encouraging and assisting early-career researchers in communicating their work to industry and the general public.

The CRC Association is inviting young scientists to submit a 30-second video about their research with the major prize of a trip to Canberra to present their work next May at Australia 2040, the annual conference of the Cooperative Research Centres Association.

The five best entries will receive a trip to Canberra with airfares, transfers, conference registration and all social events; $1,000 cash; and the opportunity to give a 5-minute presentation on their work at Australia 2040.

If you need some inspiration or help to film your video, contact our new Communications Officer Steve Pogonowski on (03) 99054213 or steve.pogonowski@crcwsc.org.au.

Applications close Thursday 26 February 2015. Further details and the entry form are available at https://crca.asn.au/ecr2015/
