Clara Immerwahr Award
The call for applications for the Clara Immerwahr Award 2022 is now open.
The application deadline is October 31, 2021.
The Clara Immerwahr Award, launched by UniCat in 2011, is an award for promoting equity and excellence in catalysis research fostering young female scientists at an early stage of their career. The award is dedicated to Dr. Clara Immerwahr (1870-1915), who was the first woman in Germany to earn a doctorate in Physical Chemistry in 1900.
The Clara Immerwahr Award is conferred annually to a young female scientist from Germany or abroad at an early stage of her career (postdoctoral fellow, junior researcher) for outstanding results in Catalysis Research. It is associated with a financial support of 15.000 Euro for a research stay at UniSysCat and thought to establish close collaborative links with UniSysCat working groups.
The Award serves as an excellent example of the promotion of outstanding young female scientists and is another successful measure taken by UniSysCat aimed at advancing female researchers.
The Clara Immerwahr Award winner 2022 will be announced on November 24, 2021 and will be honored during a public ceremony on February 18, 2022 at TU Berlin.
* The money may only be used for the winning research project as follows:
- Payment of an allowance to cover the living costs during the stays in UniSysCat incl. reimbursement of travel costs (round-trip ticket).
- Consumables (regarding the project)
