Deadline: June 15, 2021

Applications are open for the AAAS Eppendorf & Science Prize for Neurobiology 2021. The Prize is awarded annually to one young scientist for the most outstanding neurobiological research based on methods of molecular and cell biology conducted by him/her during the past three years.

The Eppendorf & Science Prize for Neurobiology acknowledges the increasingly active and important role of neurobiology in advancing the understanding of the functioning of the brain and the nervous system — a quest that seems destined for dramatic expansion in the coming decades. This international prize, established in 2002, encourages the work of promising young neurobiologists by providing support in the early stages of their careers.

Award

  • The winner of the Eppendorf and Science Prize for Neurobiology is awarded US$25,000 and publication of his or her essay in Science.
  • The essay and those of up to three finalists are also published on Science Online.

Eligibility

  • Entrants must be a neurobiologist with an advanced degree received in the last 10 years and not older than 35 years of age.
  • The entrant’s essay must describe contributions to neurobiological research based on methods of molecular and cell biology.
  • The entrant must have performed or directed the work described in the essay.
  • The research must have been performed during the previous three years.
  • Employees of Eppendorf AG, its subsidiaries, Science and AAAS, and their relatives are not eligible for the prize.

Application

The entrant must submit the following items:

  • A completed Entry Form.
  • An essay, written by the entrant, that describes his or her research and places it in perspective with respect to current research in the field of neurobiology. The essay must not exceed 1,000 words in length. The applicant must have done or directed all of the work and it must have been performed in the past three years.
  • A one-page letter of recommendation from his or her postdoctoral adviser, supervisor, or other senior colleague who is familiar with the entrant’s work.
  • A Curriculum Vitae that includes the following:
    • Full citations of papers that the entrant has published on the research described in the essay.
    • Academic and professional awards and honors that the entrant has received; and
    • Relevant professional experience.
  • Copies of two of the entrant’s papers that are most relevant to the essay.
