Early Career Scientist Prize
2026 IUPAP Early Career Scientist Prize in the field of Magnetism
Established in 2016, the IUPAP Young Scientist Prize in the field of Magnetism is awarded every year to a young scientist for theoretical or experimental work in fundamental or applied magnetism. In 2021 the IUPAP renamed its Young Scientist Prizes across all commissions to Early Career Scientist Prizes. This change of name reflects that the prizes are not intended for “young” people in terms of chronological age but in terms of their career stage.
The nominated candidate must not have completed more than eight years of research after the doctorate by the nomination deadline, with allowance for career interruptions such as military service, parental leave and other substantial breaks. The award consists of a certificate, a medal and a monetary award of 1,000 CHF. The awardee will be invited to present his or her results at the next ICM conference (13-18 June 2027, San Juan, Puerto Rico).
The nomination should be sent by the nominator by January 30, 2026 to the C9 Secretary Olivier FRUCHART by e-mail at [email protected], and copying the C9 Chair Shinji YUASA at [email protected].
