IULTCS launches eighth Young Leather Scientist Grant
22/09/2021
The IULTCS will provide €1,500 for a Basic Leather Research project, and Leather Naturally will provide €1,000 for the Dr Mike Redwood Sustainability/Environment grant.
Michael Meyer, chairman of the International Union of Research Commission of IULTCS, said: “The detailed project results of previous winners are presented in their reports on the IULTCS website. It is worthwhile reviewing these substantial and significant investigations.
“We very much value the contribution of Leather Naturally to our YLSG programme. It is a vital instrument to encourage young leather scientists to acquire awareness and become more connected to the established research community of our industry.
"We have seen the programme growing stronger over the past years. Last year's awards resulted in numerous ambitious applications with innovative ideas and sustainable technologies.”
Applications open on 1 October 2021 with a deadline of 30 November.
