New Talent Award




Terms of Award

We invite applicants to submit their papers to be considered for the New Talent Award. The topic of the paper has to be in a field that is covered by the SciCADE conference. The winner of the best paper will be invited to give a plenary talk at SciCADE 2015 in Potsdam.
All local expenses will be covered for this speaker, and the registration fee will be waived as well.

Who is eligible to apply:

  • a candidate must be under 35 years old as of 1 January 2015; and
  • a candidate must not have completed their PhD more than 4 years ago (that is, before 1 January 2011).
Submission guidelines for New Talent Award:
  • Those wishing to be considered for the New Talent Award are invited to email a electronic manuscript and a note giving their birth-date and the date when their PhD was completed to Ernst Hairer (Ernst.Hairer at unige.ch).
  • Deadline for New Talent submission is 31 May 2015.
  • A candidate may submit a jointly-authored paper, but the entry must primarily be the original work of the candidate. In this case, we ask that the manuscript be sent along with a statement from the co-authors agreeing to the submission and detailing the candidate's contribution to the paper.
All entries for the New Talent Award will be considered by the prize committee (Ernst Hairer (chair), Uri Ascher, and Taketomo Mitsui).
