MRS invites nominations for awards program
T
he Materials Research Society (MRS) is seeking nominations for the Von Hippel Award, the David Turnbull Lectureship, the MRS Medal, the Materials Theory Award, the MRS Nelson “Buck” Robinson Science and Technology Award for Renewable Energy, and The Kavli Foundation Early Career Lectureship in Materials Science. The nomination site is open March 1–April 1, 2018. These awards will be presented at the 2018 MRS Fall Meeting, November 25–30, in Boston. The MRS Awards Program recognizes outstanding contributors to the progress of materials research and acknowledges their exciting and profound accomplishments. Nomination forms and details about eligibility and nomination criteria are available from the Materials Research Society website at www.mrs.org/awards.
Von Hippel Award acknowledges outstanding interdisciplinary work in materials research
The Von Hippel Award, first presented to Arthur R. von Hippel, whose interdisciplinary and pioneering research typified the spirit of the award, is the
Society’s highest honor. The recipient is recognized for brilliance and originality of intellect, combined with vision that transcends the boundaries of conventional scientific disciplines. The award includes a $10,000 cash prize, honorary membership in MRS, and a unique trophy—a mounted ruby laser crystal, symbolizing the many faceted nature of materials research.
Turnbull Lectureship honors career of an outstanding researcher and communicator
The David Turnbull Lectureship recognizes the career of a scientist who has made outstanding contributions to understanding materials phenomena and properties through research, writing, and lecturing, as exemplified by the life work of David Turnbull. While honoring the accomplishments of the recipient, the David Turnbull Lectureship is intended to support and enrich the materials research community. The recipient will give a technical lecture of broad app
