Eligibility
Individuals named in any of the following roles during the nomination and judging period are not eligible to nominate or be nominated:
- Environment, Sustainability and Energy Prize Committee members
- RSC Subject Community Presidents
- RSC Prize Committee members
- Trustees of the Royal Society of Chemistry
- Royal Society of Chemistry staff
Nominators:
- Only RSC members can nominate for this prize.
- Nominees may NOT nominate themselves.
Nominees:
- The prize is open to RSC members only. This will be checked by RSC staff and the nominee’s RSC membership must be confirmed at the point of nomination – it is not sufficient to have a membership application in process.
- There are no career stage restrictions associated with this prize.
- Nominees can only be considered for one of our Research & Innovation Prizes in any given year. In a case where a nominee is nominated for more than one prize independently, RSC staff will ask the nominee which prize they would like to be considered for.
- We will not consider nominations of deceased individuals.
- We particularly encourage nominations of disabled people, those who work part-time, or whose career has spanned a break for any reason – for example, a period of parental or adoption leave, caring responsibilities, long-term illness, family commitments, or other circumstances. We understand that these can impact a nominee’s career in different ways, and encourage nominators to use the space provided on the nomination form to explain the nature and impact of the nominees’ individual circumstances (see 'Guidelines for Nominators' for further details).
- Please do not hesitate to contact the team at [email protected] should you have any questions about the above.
