Hermine Heusler-Edenhuizen Award

Hermine Heusler-Edenhuizen Award for the best paper

Since the winter semester 2018, the School VI Medicine and Health Sciences has awarded a "Hermine Heusler-Edenhuizen Award" every semester. The prize is awarded for an outstanding paper published by one or more members of the School VI in the semester immediately following the semester in question.

From 2023, the Hermine Heusler-Edenhuizen Award will be awarded for the best publication in the previous year.

In order to better compare scientific work from different career phases, the prize will be linked to early or advanced career phases.

Scientists in the early career phases (up to max. 3 years after doctorate or licence to practise) can apply for the Hermine Heusler-Edenhuizen Prize with their publication from the previous year until 28 February of a year.

Scientists in advanced career phases (up to habilitation) can apply for the Hermine Heusler-Edenhuizen Prize with their publication from the previous year until 31 July of a given year.

The decision is made by the Research Commission together with the Association of Friends and Sponsors of the University Medicine Northwest.
