The European Federation for Medicinal Chemistry (EFMC) created the Young Scientists Network (YSN) to support early‐career medicinal chemists and chemical biologists. By doing this, it addressed the rapid changes taking place in the scientific community and in our society, such as the rise of social media, the evolution of the gender balance in the scientific population, and educational needs. Creating the YSN was also a way to ensure that the next generation of scientists would contribute to shaping EFMC's strategy, while recognizing and addressing their needs. The YSN was set up as a very dynamic concept, and has now developed to the point where its impact is evident. The activities it promotes complement EFMC's community support and scientific opportunities, rejuvenating the Federation and preparing it for the future. It also provides opportunities for many brilliant young scientists, who do not hesitate to invest time and energy in supporting our community and shaping their own future.

青年科学家网络：欧洲药物化学联合会 (EFMC) 如何再次年轻化

欧洲药物化学联合会 (EFMC) 创建了青年科学家网络 (YSN)，以支持早期职业药物化学家和化学生物学家。通过这样做，它解决了科学界和我们社会中发生的快速变化，例如社交媒体的兴起、科学人口性别平衡的演变以及教育需求。创建 YSN 也是确保下一代科学家为制定 EFMC 战略做出贡献的一种方式，同时认识到并满足他们的需求。YSN 是一个非常动态的概念，现在已经发展到其影响显而易见的地步。它促进的活动补充了 EFMC 的社区支持和科学机会，使联合会恢复活力并为未来做好准备。
