Young Investigator Award 2008

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. The finalists will be asked to present their work at the Award evening on 22 October 2008. The winner of the Award will receive The Hon Carolyn Pickles Award of $10,000, including $1,000 being untied. Prizes of $3,000 each will be awarded as runner-up prizes with $1,000 of each prize being untied. The three finalists will also receive media training prior to the Award evening.
