2021 HFSP Nakasone Award Call for Nominations Apr 15 2020 + research funding

Sly Saint · Apr 15, 2020

"The Human Frontier Science Program is a program of funding for frontier research in the life sciences. It is implemented by the International Human Frontier Science Program Organization (HFSPO) with its office in Strasbourg."

Nominations are invited for the 2021 Human Frontier Science Program (HFSP) Nakasone Award and are to be submitted by 24 April 2020.

The HFSP Nakasone Award is designed to honour scientists who have undertaken frontier-moving research in biology, encompassing conceptual, experimental or technological breakthroughs. Both senior and junior scientists are eligible and peer-recognised excellence is the major criterion for selection. However, the jury will pay particular attention to recent breakthroughs by younger scientists. The prize is open to all scientists, not only those who have received funding within the HFSP.

The awardee(s) will receive an unrestricted research grant of USD 10,000, a medal and a personalised certificate. The award ceremony will be held at the annual HFSP Awardees Meeting, where the awardee will deliver the HFSP Nakasone Lecture.

The award is for scientific excellence of a clearly defined discovery or series of discoveries in basic life science research, in accord with HFSP’s mission to support basic research into the “complex mechanisms of living organisms”. Areas have traditionally ranged from molecular and cellular approaches to biological functions to systems neuroscience including cognitive functions. However, all levels of complexity involving mechanisms of biological phenomena or the interactions between organisms will be considered.

Nominations must be submitted using the simple nomination form. Instructions are included in the form. For more information, visit the HFSP website.
