Flygare Awards
To be eligible, nominees must have received their PhD between five and ten years ago, must have presented at least one previous talk at the Symposium, and must be available to deliver a lecture during a plenary session in the year they apply. Candidates will be evaluated based on their independent contributions relative to the time that has elapsed since their PhD.
The next Flygare Award Lectures will be presented at the 75th ISMS meeting (in 2022).
