2022 Energy & Environmental Science Lectureship Nominations Open

05 Oct 2022

Nominations for the 2022 Energy & Environmental Science Lectureship are now open!

The Lectureship is to recognize and support researchers in the early stage of their independent career working in an energy research topic within the scope of Energy & Environmental Science, and provide a platform to showcase their research to a wider scientific community. The EES Lectureship is awarded through a nominations process, with nominations of candidates open to the community.

The winner of the EES Lectureship will receive a £1,000 honorarium and will be given the opportunity to attend and present their research at a leading international conference, as well as contribute a Review-type article to Energy & Environmental Science.

The criteria for the Lectureship are:

The candidate’s research area must be within the scope of Energy & Environmental Science
Shortlisted candidates must have published in Energy & Environmental Science in the past 3 years
Candidates should be at an early stage of their independent career (generally within 10 years of attaining their doctorate or equivalent degree, but appropriate consideration will be given to those who have taken a career break, for example for childcare leave, or followed an alternative study path).

For more information, follow this link and learn how to submit your nomination by November 30th, 2022.
