Information for Applicants
Details
This Award is aimed at recognising and promoting the outstanding research performed by young investigators, as well as providing an opportunity for young researchers to present their research in a way that is readily understood by the general population. In addition, the Award provides an ideal forum for promoting media interest in the excellent and varied research being carried out at the hosting institutions and in the high quality investigators performing this research.
Judging will be a three-stage process with three finalists being chosen from eight semi-finalists after a selection panel reviews their applications. The finalists will be asked to present their work at the Award evening on 27 October 2011. The winner of the Award will receive the Young Investigator Award of $10,000. Prizes of $3,000 each will be awarded as runner-up prizes. The three finalists will also receive media training prior to the Award evening.
