Raymond Andrew Prize

In memory of Professor Dr. Raymond Andrew and to honour his pioneering work in the field of magnetic
resonance, the AMPERE Group has founded the Raymond Andrew Prize.
For the Raymond Andrew Prize 2013, the AMPERE Prize Committee is seeking qualified candidates
who completed their dissertation during the period of 2011/2012.
The prize is awarded to young scientists for an outstanding PhD thesis in magnetic resonance and will
be presented during the EUROMAR 2013 conference in Hersonissos, Crete, Greece.

Call for nominations for Raymond ANDREW Prize 2013

The Russell Varian Lecture and Prize

The Russell Varian prize honors the memory of the pioneer behind the first commercial
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectrometers and co-founder of Varian Associates.
The prize is awarded to a researcher based on a single innovative contribution
(a single paper, patent, lecture, or piece of hardware) that has proven of high and broad impact
on state-of-the-art NMR technology.
The prize is designed to recognize the initial contribution that laid the foundations for a specific
technology of great importance in state-of-the-art NMR.
It is sponsored by Agilent Technologies and currently carries a monetary award of 15,000 Euro.
The award ceremony will take place at the EUROMAR 2013 meeting in Hersonissos, Crete, Greece,
30^th June to 5^th July, 2013, with the winner delivering the Russell Varian Lecture.

Rules for the Russell Varian Prize

Only single pieces of work are considered (a paper, a lecture, a patent, etc).
In the case of multiple authorship, the prize is awarded to the author with the largest creative and innovative share of the contribution. In the exceptional case of truly equal shares in the contribution, the Prize may be split between two authors.
No individual may receive the prize more than once.
Prizewinners become members of the Advisory Board for the Russell Varian Prize that evaluates future nominations and makes recommendations to the Prize Committee.

Call for Nominations

Nominations must be forwarded by email to the Secretary of the Prize Committee,
Gareth Morris, at .
The deadline for nominations is February 12, 2013.
Nominations should be laid out in the format of a publishable laudatio proposal
(see http://www.chem.agilent.com/en-US/products-services/Instruments-Systems/Nuclear-Magnetic-Resonance/Pages/varian-prize-winners.aspx) that in the case of multiple authorship must include an
explanation of why the nominee is the most innovative author behind the paper.
Attention is further drawn to the fact that the Russell Varian prize rewards the earliest seed paper
of an important technology, rather than later more comprehensive and highly cited papers.

The Wiley Prize – Magnetic Resonance in Chemistry
	Through its Journal Magnetic Resonance in Chemistry (MRC) John Wiley & Sons is sponsoring the "Magnetic Resonance in Chemistry Award for Young Scientists". Established in 2006, the MRC Award for Young Scientists is presented at EUROMAR each year, to outstanding researchers under the age of 40 working with NMR spectroscopy in analytical chemistry within industry or academia in any part of the world.
The prize winners will be selected by the EUROMAR 2013 Program Committee and each winner will be presented with a certificate and cheque for €500 as well as the opportunity to promote their success on spectroscopyNOW.com/NMR channel and the MRC journal homepage on Wiley Online Library. The 2013 MRC Young Scientist Award winners will be presented at the EUROMAR 2013 conference in Hersonissos, Crete, Greece.
