Julia SLIWA and Leonie KOBAN

Letting young talent thrive in Europe and go after their most innovative ideas - this is the best investment in our future, not least with the ever-growing competition globally. We must trust the young and their insights into what areas will be important tomorrow. So, I am thrilled to see these new ERC Starting Grant winners ready to cut new ground and set up their own teams.

Julia SLIWA, CNRS researcher, develops a project on the neural and neuronal mechanisms that enable transformation of social percepts into social concepts named NEUROSOCIETY.
