The European Olympiad of Experimental Science EOES 2024 took place in Luxembourg from 7 to 14 April 2024. 138 secondary school students from 24 countries participated in the final competition to solve tasks in the fields of biology, chemistry and physics.
The main objective of EOES is to challenge and stimulate gifted science students, helping them to develop their talents and promoting their future scientific careers. EOES allows top young science students from across the European Union to meet; it also aims to promote a positive and high-profile image of science and scientists among the wider community.
EOES was organised by the organisation Olympiades Luxembourgeoises des Sciences Naturelles asbl (OLSN), in collaboration with the Ministry of Education, Children and Youth and the SCRIPT department as well as the University of Luxembourg – Department of Life Sciences and Medicine (DLSM) and the Department of Physics and Materials Science (DPhyMS).
At the University level, the event was coordinated by Dr. Alexandre Salsmann (DLSM); Prof. Paul Heuschling (DLSM) was chairman of the jury and Prof. Serge Haan (DLSM), Prof. Thomas Schmidt (DPhyMS), Dr. Jörg Baller (DPhysM) and Dr. Philip Goergen (Scienteens Lab) were members of the scientific jury.
