The competition was open to any science journalist interested in residency of three to five months at a research institution in the EU or associated country. Applications will now be evaluated by a committee composed of members of the FRONTIERS consortium and its Advisory Board.


In this first round of submissions, journalists from five continents applied for residencies at host institutions in 13 different countries. There were applications from experienced journalists and junior ones with journalistic projects in all scientific domains.


The results of the selection process are scheduled to be announced in May 2024. New applicants and unsuccessful applicants will be invited to apply in the second call, which is set to open in late June 2024.
