The Geochemistry Group has two awards for ECRs: the Geochemistry Group Postdoctoral Medal and the ECR Prominent Lecture award. Below we outline these opportunities. Contact George Cooper (CooperG3@cardiff.ac.uk) if you have any queries. Click the links below to download the application forms.
Geochemistry Group Postdoctoral Medal
The GG Postdoctoral Medal is awarded each year to a postdoctoral researcher employed on a temporary contract at an institution in GB/Ireland who has published outstanding research in a peer-reviewed journal within the broad field of geochemistry.
The GG Medal aims to promote the work of postdoctoral researchers who are not yet independent research fellows by recognising their outstanding research contribution. One recipient will win the medal each year, based on the publication’s innovation, novelty and significance to its field. Medal winners will also be invited to give a keynote lecture at the Geochemistry Group’s annual Research in Progress (GGRiP) meeting.
Nominations for the GG Medal can be submitted at any time throughout the year and will be reviewed at the January committee meeting (deadline 15th Jan for previous year’s publication).
Early Career Researcher Prominent Lecture Series
Early in your career it can sometimes be difficult to get the exposure for you and your research necessary to make the next big step in academia. We seek to assist this process by awarding one individual each year funding to deliver a tour of Great Britain and Ireland, presenting in a number prestigious institutions. You must currently hold a Ph.D and be registered as working at an institution within GB/Ireland.
