2021 IUPAC-Solvay International Award for Young Chemists—Call for applicants
Abstract
The 2021 IUPAC-SOLVAY International Award for Young Chemists is intended to encourage outstanding young research scientists at the beginning of their careers. The awards are given for the most outstanding Ph.D. theses in the general area of the chemical sciences, as described in a 1000-word essay. The award is generously sponsored by Solvay.
In 2021 IUPAC will award up to five prizes. Each prize will consist of USD 1000 cash award and up to USD 1000 of travel expenses to the 2021 IUPAC Congress in Montréal (13-20 Aug 2021; see iupac2021.org) where the awards will be presented. Each awardee will be invited to present a poster on his/her research and to participate in a plenary award session, and is expected to submit a review article for publication in Pure and Applied Chemistry.
In keeping with IUPAC’s status as a global organization, efforts will be made to assure fair geographic distribution of prizes.
Complete applications must be received at the IUPAC Secretariat by 15 February 2021.
