Czech Science Nominations for "Czech Head" award to be sent by mid-September
September 15th is the deadline for sending in nominations for the "Czech Head" award for outstanding Czech researchers and inventors.
Czech Head award
The prize was launched in 2002 by a team of scientists and
marketing experts in order to support and promote Czech science among the
public as an "attractive brand". Last year, eighty scientists
and projects were nominated for the award in a number of categories,
including those for university and high school students. The main prize,
the "Czech Head for Lifelong Work" went to physicist and chemist
Zdenek Herman, the head of the research team at the Jaroslav Heyrovsky
Institute of Physical Chemistry of the Czech Academy of Sciences. This
year's award ceremony will take place on November 25th and the winner will
receive over 1 million crowns (33,000 euros).
