19 February 2008

Awards Funding

Each year, ERCIM awards a promising young researcher in computer science and applied mathematics with the Cor Baayen Award. The winner of the award receives 5,000 euros, together with an award certificate.

The award will be presented at a ceremony during the ERCIM Autumn meeting in November 2008 where the winner will present a talk on his or her work.

Nominees must have carried out their work in one of the 'ERCIM countries' (Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Norway, Poland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, The Netherlands and the United Kingdom).

Nominees must have been awarded their PhD (or equivalent) after 15 April 2005.

Nominations may be submitted online only.

Awarded by the Texas Academy of Medicine, Engineering, Science and Technology (TAMEST) and Lyda Hill Philanthropies, the prize recognizes groundbreaking innovations with the potential for real-world impact.Dr. Liu shares the award as co-principal investigator alongsideJames Chelikowsky, a professor of physics and chemical engineering at UT Austin.“Our research will make the U.S. more competitive in the world,” Liu said. “We lag behind many other countries in magnet research even though magnets are crucial components in everyday devices like laptops, tablets, smartphones and robotics, as well as renewable technologies such as wind turbines and electric vehicles. These devices rely heavily on the use of rare-earth elements that are expensive and environmentally destructive to extract. Our research focuses on using more abundant elements that can be sourced domestically with less environmental damage.” Image Credit: UTA
