Elite young scientist

Thursday, January 24th, 2008

If I time this correctly, this post will be released while I am sitting at the award ceremony at Carlsberg Glyptotek waiting to receive this years “Elite young scientist” award from the Minister of Science.

When I get back to Aarhus of course I’ll write some more about this.

Update: The program for the event can be found here.
