The Junge Akademie consists of 50 members | On 10 June 2017, ten outstanding new members joined the ranks of the academy for emerging scientific talent | New Board inaugurated
The Junge Akademie welcomed ten new members during its annual celebration on 10 June 2017. The newest members hail from many and diverse disciplines, from chemistry to art history, and include a sinologist, a philosopher, a chemist, and a psychologist, to name just a few.
Junge Akademie board member and head of the selection commission Wolfram Pernice is satisfied with the selection: “We received excellent applications and it was not easy for the commission to choose upon the new members.” Just as the other members of the Junge Akademie, Pernice is now looking forward the interdisciplinary collaboration with the new members.
During their five years as members of the Junge Akademie, the newly elected members will work together with the other 40 members to conduct interdisciplinary research, participate in research groups on topics such as “Internationalisation”, “Art as Research” or “Visualisation”, and contribute to efforts at the intersection between science and society. One of the first projects the new members will have the chance to contribute to will be a podium discussion of the Research Group “Science Policy” on 21 June 2017 in Berlin.

The prerequisites for membership include the completion of an outstanding doctoral dissertation as well as of an additional high-quality publication or work of art. Members are in general selected from the German-speaking region. Every year, ten members join the ranks of alumni and ten new members are elected to enter the Junge Akademie. The election of members is conducted on a rotating basis by the BBAW and Leopoldina on the one hand, and by the Junge Akademie on the other hand. Membership selection for 2017/2018 was conducted in early 2017 by the Junge Akademie. The next selection process will be conducted by the parent academies in early 2018.
