About Us
In order to organise a meaningful and significant impact of young scientists on today’s and tomorrow’s decision processes in particle, astroparticle, hadron, nuclear and accelerator physics, a coordination of interests among young scientists on a national level is essential.
A management board represents the association to other committees / bodies as well as to the public. These are the current elected members of the Management Board of the yHEP association:
