Call for Nominations

Dear Colleague,

We seek your help in identifying candidates for the € 1 million prize, The Brain Prize, which has been established by a private Danish foundation, the Grete Lundbeck European Brain Research Foundation.

The Prize recognizes highly original and influential advances in research on the nervous system. If several researchers have contributed significantly to this achievement, more than one individual may receive the Prize. Nominees can be of any nationality but the research for which they are nominated must have been conducted in Europe or in collaboration with researchers in Europe.

It was awarded for the second time this year, to Christine Petit, France, and Karen Steel, England..

This Prize is intended to raise the visibility of European neuroscience and to be a stimulus to this important field of research. The Selection Committee seeks your help in securing nominations of the highest quality. Please consider nominating or renominating an individual or a number of researchers (by following the link to the website in the announcement below), and feel free to forward this message to others, anywhere in the world, who might be prepared to nominate.

With best wishes,

Dr. Nils Axelsen                                                                                Professor Colin Blakemore
