London International Youth Science Forum 2014

LIYSF is a two week residential event held at Imperial College London, with lectures and demonstrations from leading scientists, visits to industrial sites, research centres, scientific institutions and organisations, including world class laboratories and universities.

The two week residential forum attracts over 350 of the world's leading young scientists, aged 17-21 years old, from more than 60 participating countries. We welcome students selected by their University to attend LIYSF that are identified as having a keen interest in science. Many students also attend as international prize winners, including top winners from European Union Contest for Young Scientists, INTEL ISEF, FAST Italy, National Youth Science Forum Australia, INTEL India, Beijing NGO, British Council Famelab Egypt, Malta Student Science Forum and Ministry of Education Singapore to name a few.

There is an active social calendar with events designed to enable those from around the world to learn about different cultures. The scope of LIYSF extends further than broadening scientific understanding to engage students in education on other cultures and develop lasting, international friendships.
