Description

This round table will explore how cutting-edge research in energy, and neutron and photon sciences can translate into tangible societal benefits. Bringing together experts from research infrastructures, industry, and science diplomacy, the discussion will highlight pathways from fundamental science to real-world applications, including sustainable energy solutions, innovation, and policy impact.

The session will also emphasize the role of international collaboration, education, and training, drawing on successful models such as large-scale facilities and advanced schools, to prepare the next generation of scientists.
Particular attention will be given to how early-career researchers can engage with global networks and contribute to impactful, interdisciplinary research.
