The European Initiative for Communicators of Science (EICOS) welcomes applications of professional journalists for the course 2006 until the 10th of April.

EICOS is a programme that wants to improve the communication between journalists and scientists. Within an eight-day hands-on laboratory experience they work side by side at the cutting edge of scientific research.

The Hands-on Laboratory will take place from Saturday, June 10th 2006 to Saturday, June 17th 2006 at the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry in Göttingen.
