Continuing the discussion from Funding Open Science projects - thoughts, ideas, experience, bureaucracy:
Nominations and applications for this year’s Einstein Foundation Award for Promoting Quality in Research are now open (due 30th April). Note that my understanding of this is that individuals should be nominated, early-career researchers should apply, and organizations can be nominated or apply.
The Einstein Foundation Award for Promoting Quality in Research aims to provide recognition and publicity for outstanding efforts that enhance the rigor, reliability, robustness, and transparency of research in the natural sciences, the social sciences, and the humanities, and stimulate awareness and activities fostering research quality among scientists, institutions, funders, and politicians. To acknowledge the outstanding role early career researchers (ECRs) have in promoting research quality, ECRs will be invited to propose projects that foster research quality and value. Projects will be competitively selected for funding and internationally showcased.
This award is open to any researcher or group of researchers, organizations, or institutions involved in science and research, education, and scholarship. To be eligible for the early career award, candidates must hold a doctorate or have equivalent research experience, and should have been an independent researcher for no longer than five years.
Nominations of individual or small teams should include a nomination letter, a CV, and a list of relevant publications of each nominee, as well as letters of support from eminent experts and former trainees.
Applications or nominations of organizations and institutions should consist of a nomination or application letter, as well as letters of support from eminent experts.
Early career researchers or small teams of early career researchers should submit a letter of motivation, a project proposal, as well as a CV and a list of relevant publications for each team member.
Does anybody in the forum community have somebody to suggest for the award???
