Young Scientists Committee

The VPH Young Scientists Committee (YSC) is a group of young researchers dedicated to promoting the VPH community and supporting the professional growth of students and early-career scientists in the field of in silico medicine. By meeting regularly, the committee provides a dynamic environment for networking, knowledge sharing, and skill development among young members of the VPH.
