The Institute of Physics Bell-Burnell Award for the very early career female physicist of the year 2016. Tenth annual award – £1000 prize sponsored by AWE.
The Women in Physics Group invites applications from women at the start of their careers in physics who have made a substantial contribution to the subject and have undertaken activities to support and encourage others in the field. The prize is awarded annually to a woman who is within five years of the award of her first degree in physics (bachelor's or master's), not including career breaks, and is either working as a physicist or is engaged in postgraduate study in physics. Shortlisted applicants will give a presentation of their work at an Institute of Physics Women in Physics event on 9 November to celebrate international Women in Physics Day. The winner will also be invited to the IOP awards dinner on 29 November, where they will be presented with a medal and certificate, in addition to being given £1,000 prize money donated by AWE. As well as providing recognition of the winner’s work, the award will also lead to valuable networking opportunities. Applicants must therefore be resident in the UK or Ireland at the time of nomination and for the events on 9 and 29 November. The Bell-Burnell Award seeks to recognise the outstanding work of women embarking on a career in physics and to promote the career opportunities open to people with physics qualifications.
