ASPIS Academy is proud to announce its first ASPIS Academy Summer School 2025, taking place on April 24–25, 2025, at Hospital Universitario y Politécnico La Fe in Valencia, Spain. This exclusive event is designed to equip early-career scientists with essential skills in research output management, data visualization, and science communication—all crucial for driving the transition to New Approach Methodologies (NAMs).
We are also excited to welcome Altertox as an official sponsor of this year’s summer school! Their support helps us continue providing high-quality training opportunities for the next generation of scientists.
“This is an amazing opportunity for ASPIS Academy researchers to be hands-on involved in a course made specifically for them. With the invaluable support of the sponsor(s), we are sure this first ASPIS Academy Summer School will be a success, from our (already traditional) sightseeing tour to a full day of learning, exchange and discussions“
