About this prize

The award is open to doctoral students working in the area of macrocyclic and/or supramolecular chemistry in its widest sense. 

The award consists of £100 and a lecture at the MASC Interest Group meeting that is held annually in December.

It is open to doctoral students in the final year of their studies, or those who have had their viva and been recommended for the award of a doctorate in or after October in the year preceding the call. Candidates must have conducted their doctoral studies at an institution in the UK or Ireland or be able to otherwise demonstrate a strong link to the MASC Interest Group.

Self-nominations should consist of a thesis abstract, a list of publications, a statement (max. 500 words) highlighting the candidate’s scientific contribution to what they consider to be their best publication(s) from their PhD and a one-page supporting statement from the PhD supervisor that includes a statement that confirms that the student is eligible for the award. Only complete nominations will be considered.
