Dear grad students and postdocs,

You may have seen the call for Falling Walls participants and wondered if it was relevant to you. I am here to tell you that it is!

Falling walls is all about innovative ideas. It's like a 3MT but with emphasis on innovation and broad impact. You don't need to have a commercial angle or application to be considered innovative; there are other ways to shake up the field with novel approaches and research frameworks.

So, I strongly consider that you apply by the March 31st deadline! Here are some links that might help:
