Call for nominations for The 2022 Brain Prize is now open
The Lundbeck Foundation is now accepting nominations for next year's winners of The Brain Prize, the world's largest prize for neuroscience. Find out about the nomination and selection process, and nominate here: https://lundbeckfonden.com/en/node/4051.
The Brain Prize recognizes ground-breaking advances in any field of neuroscience, from basic to clinical research, and recipients may be of any nationality and working in any country in the world. Anyone can nominate and the Lundbeck Foundation warmly welcomes nominees and nominators from diverse backgrounds.
The Prize may be awarded to one or more scientists who have distinguished themselves through outstanding contributions to any field of neuroscience, from fundamental studies to research related to understanding and treatment of diseases of the brain and other parts of the nervous system.
Only candidates who are nominated by others will be considered for The Brain Prize. Further details of the nomination criteria can be found on this page, together with the nomination form.
The rewarded research must – from an international perspective – be outstanding. It is the task of The Brain Prize Selection Committee to decide in each individual case, what characterizes the research as outstanding and therefore deserves the prize. The current selection committee consists of 9 eminent neuroscientists who are leaders in their respective fields.
