Scientists for Nature 2025 - A Quantum Leap for Biodiversity
It has been an exciting and special day at the 74th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings where we hosted our second Scientists for Nature Finalists Summit 'A Quantum Leap for Biodiversity'.
Every year, the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings brings together almost 40 Nobel Laureates and 600 young scientists from across the globe and we are honoured to conduct our Science Challenge with the unique and exclusiv community.
A huge thank you to the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings and our scientific panel Prof Nathalie Seddon (University of Oxford) and Prof David Coomes (University of Cambridge) as well as our supporter circle who attended and are looking to get behind some of our finalists.
