Research Encouragement Award

Research Encouragement Award

This is a system for the public acknowledgement of young researchers who proactively promoted their superior research results at the lecture hosted by this subcommittee, in order to vitalize the activities of this subcommittee and to cultivate young researchers. It has been implemented since the 2004 lecture.

Candidates for selection
Up to 10% of the total number will be selected from the presenters (those heading the lists of oral presentations and poster presentations) of general entry lectures at the subcommittee lecture (held once yearly).
Application qualifications
Persons who are age 33 or younger at the time of presentation and who have not received the encouragement award of this subcommittee or of the Japan Society of Applied Physics.
Application method
Please clearly express the fact that you meet the application qualifications at the time of application for the lecture.

You will be acknowledged at the closing ceremony of the subcommittee's lectures (certificate of commendation and presentation of a memento), and the names of the prize winners will be listed on this subcommittee's web site.
