Abstract
Bestowed in partnership with IUPAC, DSM invites nominations for the DSM Bright Science Award 2020 in materials sciences which is accompanied by a cash prize of €25 000. This prestigious award has been established to recognize and reward experienced scientists, in the midst of their career, who have already made an indelible, positive impact on our global society and on the advancement of science in their respective field of research—and who we would like to stimulate to continue doing so by recognizing and rewarding their talent and achievements.
Scientists from all parts of the world who have made major contributions to fundamental or applied research in the field of materials sciences can be nominated for the award. A prime requirement is that the candidate’s research must have significantly advanced the world’s understanding and knowledge of key questions in this field. Candidates for the award can be put forward by nomination only.
Nomination deadline 1 February 2020.
An international judging committee will review the nominations and select the winner. The judging committee comprises members from DSM, DSM’s Scientific Advisory Board, IUPAC, and a previous prize winner. It is a requirement of the award that the recipient will be present at the award ceremony, scheduled during the IUPAC-MACRO conference (5-9 July 2020, JeJu Island, South Korea) to receive the award personally and to deliver a lecture on their research work.
