A remarkable number of bright and committed Young Minds answered the call for applications to join the Action Committee.
Eventually, Serina Almassu (EPS YM Science4People in Bethlehem & PhD candidate at the Calegari research group, Centre of Regenerative Therapies-Dresden, Dresden University of Technology) and Pasquale Francesco Romano (EPS YM PONYS in Naples & Master’s candidate in subnuclear and astroparticle physics) were selected to join the committee.
Serina Almassu is a PhD candidate (Pre-doc) at Calegari research group, Centre of Regenerative Therapies-Dresden (CRTD), Dresden University of Technology (TUD), Germany. She’s also an administrative board member of the scientific research community of Palestine “ The Researchist” since 2019, and a member of the Palestinian Medical Technology Association since 2020. She has been a member of the EPS Young Minds section Science4People in Bethlehem, Palestine since 2017, and now an Action Committee member of the Young Minds project of EPS.
Pasquale Francesco Romano, a dedicated Master’s candidate in subnuclear and astroparticle physics, has been passionately engaged in scientific outreach and education. His contributions to the Physics & Optics Naples Young Students (PONYS) have been instrumental in organizing numerous events and workshops aimed at fostering a deeper understanding of physics among the public.
Both Serina and Pasquale have demonstrated exceptional motivation and leadership in developing their local sections and broader communities, and we are excited that they have been contributing to the programme’s growth in more central roles since September.
We are confident that their expertise and dedication will continue to significantly enhance our initiatives and impact.
