[ncrs-general] Nominations and applications for URSI Awards and Prizes required

[Phil Wilkinson]

Hello All,

URSI has called for nominations for a number of awards and prizes
that are presented during the General Assembly.

If you are interested in any of these awards, please check out
the details at the URSI Website.

Briefly summarising:

Young Scientist Awards (close 15 November 2004)
-----------------------------------------------
Go to the 16 February News item at http://www.ursi.org 
to download the forms and conditions, or
check the March 2004 Radio Science Bulletin p5-6. (see side
bar of http://www.ursi.org to get to the web (free) copy of
the Radio Science Bulletin.  Note that  3 copies of 
applications are sent directly to the URSI Secretariat.


URSI Senior and Junior Awards (close 15 August 2004)
-----------------------------------------------------
http://www.ursi.org/India05/Awards-Callnom.pdf for letter
inviting nominations and for a list of the awards and details
of nominations, go to  the 20 February News item at
http://www.ursi.org/

As a reminder, the awards available for nominations are:
Balthasar van der Pol and John Howard Dellinger Gold Medals,
the Appleton Prize, the Booker Gold Medal and the Issac Koga
Gold Medal (the junior award - terminology I find a little odd
as there is nothing junior about the award).

If you decide to make a nomination, then it will need to be
communicated to URSI by either myself (as Chair of the NCRS),
the Chairs and Vice-Chairs of Commissions, or a former URSI
Laureate.


International Electromagnetics Prize (closes 15 June 2005)
----------------------------------------------------------
http://www.ursi.org/EM%20Prize.htm.  This prize is worth
US$10,000 and is open to almost all scientists.  Check the
conditions, and the Challenge.


Finally, a reminder that the WARS2004 Proceedings is now
available at:

best wishes,
Phil
