The Krupp Foundation supports 10 young scientists’ attendance at the 75th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting

The 75th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting started on Sunday. Around 70 Nobel Laureates and more than 600 young scientists from all over the world are taking part in this anniversary event to engage in interdisciplinary exchange and discuss current scientific and societal challenges. The wide range of topics discussed at the meeting extends from medicine to environmental and earth sciences and astrophysics, amongst others.

In this context, the Krupp Foundation awarded ten scholarships to young scientists from around the world to enable them to attend the conference and thus promote scientific dialogue across national borders.

The recipients are:

Phuang Zhen Xin, Xiamen University Malaysia, Malaysia, Research area: New Energy Science and Engineering

Saad Zafar, Yokohama National University, Japan, Research area: Chemistry, Materials Science, Energy Storage

Gabriel Vasco, São Paulo State University (UNESP), Brazil, Research area: Biodiversity, Environmental Sciences, Water Resources

Vinaya Siby, Constructor University, Bremen, Germany, Research area: Chemistry, Materials Science

Fabian Kleinhenz, TUM University Hospital, Munich, Germany, Research area: Medicine, Oncology

Since its establishment, the Krupp Foundation has been committed to the field of science, placing particular emphasis on supporting young scientists in order to open doors for them, pave the way and provide them with new perspectives and opportunities.

The conference in Lindau on Lake Constance runs until 3 July 2026 and is regarded as a globally unique platform which is not only the largest gathering of Nobel laureates, but also promotes exchange between established scientists and the next generation of researchers.
