Blueprints for the scientific society of the future: how <scp>FEBS</scp> and other scientific societies will have changed 60 years from now

The Federation of European Biochemical Societies (FEBS) was founded in 1964 to bring together the scientific societies of Europe and neighbouring regions and to provide a platform for scientific exchange. Today, FEBS is an organisation of more than 30 000 members across 39 biochemistry and molecular biology societies that promotes excellence in the life sciences in Europe and beyond. To mark the 60<sup>th</sup> anniversary of FEBS, FEBS Letters celebrated with a writing contest focussed on participants' visions of scientific societies in the year 2084. Here, we present the winning essay, in which Yussuf Ali (Jagiellonian University, Poland) considers a future in which FEBS transcends not only geographical boundaries, but also interdisciplinary, technological and financial boundaries.

Abstract

The Federation of European Biochemical Societies (FEBS) was founded in 1964 to bring together the scientific societies of Europe and neighbouring regions and to provide a platform for scientific exchange. Today, FEBS is an organisation of more than 30 000 members across 39 biochemistry and molecular biology societies that promotes excellence in the life sciences in Europe and beyond. To mark the 60<sup>th</sup> anniversary of FEBS, FEBS Letters celebrated with a writing contest focussed on participants' visions of scientific societies in the year 2084. Here, we present the winning essay, in which Yussuf Ali (Jagiellonian University, Poland) considers a future in which FEBS transcends not only geographical boundaries, but also interdisciplinary, technological and financial boundaries.
