Science & SciLifeLab Prize for Young Scientists - Open for Applications

I would like to pass on some information to you about our young scientists’ prize that we award together with Science/AAAS – the Science & SciLifeLab Prize for Young Scientists. Now open for applications!

Four recent PhDs are selected as winners and will be published by Science, receive up to 30,000 USD and be invited to Sweden to receive their awards, present their research, and meet with leading scientists in their respective fields.

This year’s categories are:
•           Cell and Molecular Biology
•           Genomics, Proteomics and Systems Biology Approaches
•           Ecology and Environment
•           Molecular Medicine

Eligible entrants must have been awarded their doctoral degree in 2018 or 2019.

Candidates apply by submitting a 1000-word essay (along with a few other documents, such as a letter of reference) about their PhD thesis, which is judged by an independent editorial team organized by Science.

The application deadline for this year’s Prize is July 15, 2020. More information can be found on: https://scienceprize.scilifelab.se

We would be very grateful if you would spread this information (and the attached flyer) to recent PhDs within your network. It would be fantastic to welcome a winner from your institution.

Don’t hesitate to contact me, should you have any questions!

Best regards,
