Deadline: December 15, 2023
Applications are open for the Thieme-IUPAC Prize 2024 for Scientists. This award is presented every two years on the occasion of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry – International Conference on Organic Synthesis (IUPAC–ICOS). The prize will be awarded based on scientific merit for independent research dealing with synthesis in the broadest context of organic chemistry, including organometallic chemistry, medicinal and biological chemistry.
The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) is the world authority on chemical nomenclature and terminology, including the naming of new elements in the periodic table; on standardized methods for measurement; and on atomic weights, and many other critically-evaluated data.
Award
- A prize of €5,000 is awarded to the winner.
Eligibility
- Open to scientists who must be no older than 42 years of age on January 1, 2024. This means that all candidates who would have been eligible for the 2022 Prize, which was suspended due to Covid, will be considered eligible for the 2024 Thieme-IUPAC Prize.
- The candidate’s research must have had a major impact in synthetic organic chemistry.
Nomination
Proposals must be accompanied by:
- a biographical sketch of the nominee
- a list of the candidate’s ten most significant publications
- a statement of how the candidate’s research has had a major impact on the field of synthetic organic chemistry
The material will be confidentially forwarded to an independent selection committee.
Nomination materials should be submitted by e-mail to [email protected] by December 15, 2023.
