DGZ AWARDS 2018
The German Society for Cell Biology offers a research award
named after Walther Flemming, one of the pioneers of cell
biological research. In 1875 he provided us with a detailed
description of processes during cell division, which he named
mitosis.
The Walther Flemming Award is awarded annually for out-
standing scientific merits from all fields of cell biological
research. Eligible are researchers up to an age of 38 years. The
award consists of a prize money of EUR 2000 and is sponsored
by the European Journal of Cell Biology.
Applications have to consist of a cover letter, a CV and a list
of publications. The subject of the application should relate to
one distinct field of research. In addition, a short summary of
the work and a compelling description of the importance of
the work for cell biology should be presented.
Both individual applications and nominations are accepted.
Applications will be reviewed by an independent commission of
the DGZ. The award ceremony takes place at the DGZ Interna-
tional Meeting which will be held on September 17-19, 2018
in Leipzig.
