IZA Young Researcher Award
Sponsored by ExxonMobil
| The IZA established the Young Researcher Award in order to
recognize and stimulate young talents within the zeolite and related
nanoporous materials community. The Young Researcher Award will be given to an individual for outstanding contribution to the Science and Technology of zeolites and related nanoporous materials, since January 1st of the year of the last IZC to the December 31st of the year before the IZC where the award will be given. The award, a plaque, will be given to an individual not a group, during the banquet of the International Zeolite Conference. The sponsorship, in the amount of $10,000, is assumed by ExxonMobil and presented at each IZC conference. The IZA Protocol for the Young Researcher Award can be viewed here. |
