About Us
The Junior European Calcium Society board consists of young scientists (Ph.D. students, postdocs, and non-tenured junior group leaders) in the field of calcium research. The goal of the JECS board is to foster contacts and relationships by creating links between new and well-established scientists, as well as to support the next generation of researchers within the society.
If you are interested in becoming an active member of the ECS Junior Board and organising events and meetings, please feel free to contact us!
