Posted: 3rd May 2023
Associate Professor Andrzej Murawski has been elected to receive one of this year’s Humboldt Prizes. The Humboldt Prize, the Humboldt-Forschungspreis in German, also known as the Humboldt Research Award, is an award given by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany to internationally renowned scientists and scholars who work outside of Germany, in recognition of their lifetime's research achievements. Recipients are ‘academics whose fundamental discoveries, new theories or insights have had a significant impact on their own discipline and who are expected to continue producing cutting-edge academic achievements in the future’.
The prize is currently valued at €60,000 with the possibility of further support during the prize winner's life, and can be used to support research projects carried out in cooperation with specialist colleagues in Germany. Andrzej will use part of his award it to initiate a collaboration with Professor Roland Meyer from Technische Universität Braunschweig.
