Nominations for the Brain Prize 2019 open

Nominations for the Brain Prize 2019 open

See Brainprize 2019 nominations. Deadline 1^st September 2018.

Nominations are now open for the €1 million prize, The Brain Prize, which is awarded by the Lundbeck Foundation. Call for Nominations is open until 1^st September 2018.

There has been criticism with the lack of diversity amongst the prize winners in the previous years – all 23 winners since 2013 have been men. A recent post by the Brainprize twitter account ascribes this to a gender imbalance in nominations – In 2018, 19% of the nominees were women. You can address this by putting forward your nominations.

Past Cambridge winners include Trevor Robbins (2014), Wolfram Schultz (2017) and Michel Goedert (2018).
