Since the SLSAeu is committed to supporting young talents, 28 candidates from 15 different countries have been selected for a masterclass for PhD students and young postdocs, including feedback from SLSA's keynote speakers.
The SLSA art events are staged at the Medical Museion, at Statens Museum for Kunst / The National Gallery of Denmark, and at Overgaden Institute of Contemporary Art.
The SLSAeu is the sister organisation of the international USA-based Society for Literature, Science and the Arts.
