2012 IUPAC-ThalesNano Prize in Flow Chemistry - Call for Nominations
Call for Nominations
The IUPAC-ThalesNano Prize has been established in 2011. It will be awarded for the first time in 2012. The award shall be presented at a related conference under the sponsorship of IUPAC where the recipient should give a plenary lecture on the subject of his/her research. A contribution to travel expenses will be provided.
The prize is to be awarded to an internationally recognized scientist, whose activities or published accounts have made an outstanding contribution in the field of flow chemistry in academia or industry.
Prize USD 7500
The Prize has been established by a generous gift from the Hungarian Technology company ThalesNano Inc. to acknowledge the key role that flow chemistry plays towards the improvement of chemical processes.
Applicants should be received by NOMINATION only, with just one person needing to serve in that capacity, although a total of five (5) individuals should be listed as referees overall. The package must be submitted electronically and should contain a complete resume, a professional autobiography of not more than two pages, and a one-page summary of what the individual considers to be his/her activities, accomplishments and/or publications that have had the most significant impact upon the field of Flow Chemistry. The material will be forwarded confidentially to an independent selection committee appointed by the IUPAC Committee on Chemistry and Industry.
Deadline: 31 January 2012
