Program GfMVB Meeting in Halle
Emerging Scientist Award (sponsored by ibidi)
The GfMVB Emerging Scientist Award is kindly sponsored by ibidi and awarded for excellent publications in the field of experimental and clinical research in microcirculation and vascular biology published in the year preceding the annual GfMVB conference. The typical applicant for the HR award is a postdoc researcher on her/his/their way to scientific independence. The top-three applicants will be invited to give a presentation at the annual meeting of the GfMVB. At the meeting, an expert jury-panel will select the winner based on the quality of the oral presentation. Besides eternal fame, the prizes are 2000 euro for the winner, and 500 euro for the runners up.
Aletta Jacobs Awards
The Aletta Jacobs award is dedicated to promote female scientists in the field of vascular biology at the start of their career. It was first introduced at the joint Dutch German microcirculation meeting in 2018 in Amsterdam, and continued to promote cross-border vascular research involving junior scientists. Eligible are female PhD students, and female Postdocs within on year upon their thesis defense.
