Call for Nominations for the Anatole Abragam Prize for Young Investigators 2019

Anatole Abragam made seminal contributions to both NMR and EPR and was a recipient of the
ISMAR Prize and a Fellow of ISMAR. In addition to his superb scientific contributions, fostering
young scientists was clearly close to his heart. With this in mind, ISMAR awards the “Anatole
Abragam Prize” to young scientists at biennial ISMAR conferences (see
https://www.weizmann.ac.il/ISMAR/prizes/anatole). Monetary support for this Prize is provided
by Bruker Biospin.

The 2019 Anatole Abragam Prize will be awarded at the 21st ISMAR Conference in Berlin, August
25‐30, 2019 (see https://conference.euroismar2019.org/event/1/ ). Candidates are
eligible within seven years of completing their PhD (excluding career delays due to child birth,
illness and other special family circumstances), and can be nominated by any Regular Member or
Fellow of ISMAR. The recipient is selected by the ISMAR Prize Committee on the basis of evidence
of novel and significant contributions to magnetic resonance. Preference is given to nominees
who have made their own original and independent contributions to experimental or conceptual
aspects of magnetic resonance, beyond work performed with their research supervisors. The
award aims to recognize and foster outstanding young scientists at an important point in their
career.

You are invited to submit nominations by e‐mail to the Secretary General,
alexej.jerschow@nyu.edu. Nominations must be received by March 1, 2019 and should include
the following documents, assembled into a single pdf file:
• Nomination letter (maximum of two pages)
• At least one seconding letter (maximum of two pages). No more than two seconding letters
should be submitted.
• Curriculum vitae of the nominee (including any career delays or extenuating circumstances
impacting productivity)
• List of publications and scientific presentations by the nominee.

We look forward to seeing you in Berlin in August.
