Candidates can choose to participate in one of the  categories listed above.\nThe BNS-YG Scientific Contest of 2023 will be organised on 21st of November and will take place at Tabloo (Gravenstraat 3, 2480 Dessel). During the contest, the winners of each category will be given the opportunity to present their work and receive their price. The contest will be followed by a reception.\nThe rules of the competition can be found here.\n2.13.0.0\nLaureates of the 2023 edition\n2.13.0.02.13.0.02.13.0.02.13.0.02.13.0.0\n \nNoelia Olivia (SCK
