          The BINDER Innovation Prize is founded by BINDER GmbH in Tuttlingen and awarded by the
        
        
          German Society for Cell Biology (DGZ). It is endowed with EUR 4000 and was awarded the first
        
        
          time in 1998. The award is given for outstanding cell biological research with a focus on cell
        
        
          culture or the use of cell cultures.
        
        
          Candidates may apply for the prize themselves. DGZ membership is desired but not required.
        
        
          Applications have to consist of a cover letter, CV and a research profile.
        
        
          Applications will be reviewed by an independent commission of the DGZ. The award ceremony takes place at the next
        
        
          DGZ meeting, which will be held in March 2015 in Cologne.
