The Chemical Crystallography Prize for Younger Scientists is sponsored by the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre (CCDC) and is awarded by the Chemical Crystallography Group (CCG) of the British Crystallographic Association (BCA) annually to an outstanding early career researcher who has made significant contribution to chemical crystallography and its community.
Nomination guidelines
The award is made based on original published research (up to three publications) within the scientific field of interest of the CCDC and BCA-CCG. Broadly, this corresponds to original research in the field of chemical crystallography or the application of crystallographic information to structural chemistry, including advances in instrumental, experimental, theoretical or computational techniques that contribute to the field.
Proposers are typically those with expertise in the field that allows them to comment on the nomineeās research and other factors relevant to the award. Self-nominations are permitted.
