young scientists
Budding lab minds
Young scientists refers to people early in scientific careers—students, postdocs, and early-career researchers.
The phrase appears frequently in academic contexts describing funding opportunities, mentorship programs, and conferences aimed at those not yet established: The grant supports young scientists in developing independent research.
Age matters less than career stage; a forty-year-old entering science after another profession might qualify.
