Call
for nominations for the ICIAM Prizes 2019
The ICIAM Prize
Committee for 2019 calls for nominations for the five
ICIAM Prizes to be awarded in 2019 (the Collatz Prize,
the Lagrange Prize, the Maxwell Prize, the Pioneer
Prize and the Su Buchin Prize). Each ICIAM Prize has
its own special character, but each one is truly
international in character. Nominations are therefore
welcome from every part of the world. A nomination
should take into account the specifications for a
particular prize (see http://www.iciam.org/iciam-prizes
and see also below), and should contain the following
information:
• Full name
and address of person nominated.
• Web home
page if any.
• Name of
particular ICIAM Prize.
•
Justification for nomination (cite nominator's
reason for considering candidate to be deserving,
including explanations
of the scientific and practical influence of the
candidate's work and publications).
• Proposed
citation (concise statement about the outstanding
contribution in fewer than 250 words).
• CV of the
nominee.
• 2-3
letters of support from experts in the field and/or
2-3 names of experts to be consulted by the Prize Committee.
• Name and
contact details of the proposer.
The
deadline for nominations is July 15th, 2017.
Please contact president@iciam.org if
you have any question regarding the nomination
procedure.
