The IPPA solicits international nomination of candidates for all its Prizes. The Nominator’s package should be sent to the Secretary of the Selection Committee before the submission deadline, and should consist of the following:
(a) Biographical information, a list of publications, patents or other published work of the nominee. Supporting letters are desirable but not necessary, as the nominator is responsible for documenting information making a convincing case about the excellence of the nominee’s research that warrants an IPPA Prize. In case there are supporting letters, they are expected to provide more details about the achievements of the nominee for which the Prize will be awarded, letters which could help construct the prize citation. The nominator should submit all such letters (maximum 3) along with the rest of the nomination package.
(b) For all four Prizes, a citation of up to 200 words (subject to the Selection Committee’s review and approval) should be submitted by the nominator describing the significance and impact of the contributions of the nominee.
