All NVTB Members can submit a paper to be considered for the award, which can be their own paper. The paper has to be published in the year 2022 or 2023. Every member can only submit one paper. The first author(s) of the paper can win the prize, but they have to be a PhD student, Postdoc or Master’s student. After the papers are submitted a jury will be selected by the board. The prize will consist of a 100 euro prize, accompanied by an invited talk at next year's Schoorl meeting. The deadline for submission is the 31th of March 2024.
