The Society's Most Prestigious Honor The MRS Awards Committee, chaired by Past President Gordon Pike, has announced that nominations are being accepted for the Society's highest award, the Von Hippel Award of the Materials Research Society. The Award is an international hallmark of excellence in the field of materials research, numbering nine prominent materials scientists as past recipients. The Award is named for the Emeritus Professor of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Arthur von Hippel, whose laboratory pioneered the collaborative, interdisciplinary research that subsequently has taken the identity of "materials science." It recognizes those qualities most
prized by materials scientists — brilliance and originality of intellect, combined with vision that transcends conventional scientific disciplines. The Award is presented annually by the Society at its Fall Meeting. The recipient is selected by majority vote of the MRS Council from a slate of candidates that is prepared by the Awards Committee. Nominations should be made to the MRS Awards Committee. Names put into nomination are, in accordance with MRS Bylaws, considered active for three years. Nominations must be made using the Von Hippel Award Nomination Form and should be accompanied by supporting documentation. Nominations should be sent to: Gordon E. Pike, Sandia National Laboratories, Division 1815, Albuquerque, NM 87185. A Nomination Form is provided on the next page.
