科学·品驰神经调控奖——寻找下一位Winner

2019-01-21 科学公众号

为推动(青年)科学家的科研工作,促进学科发展,《科学》杂志/美国科学促进会目前设有5个奖项,奖励相关领域内的优秀科研成果

  不仅可以在Science上发表你的研究,还能赢取高额奖金!可谓名利双收的大好事。我们热烈欢迎国内神经调控领域内的青年科学家积极投稿。小编个人也非常期待下一位获奖的是来自中国的科学家。

  接下来让我们详细了解一下奖项吧。

  关于科学·品驰奖

  科学·品驰神经调控奖旨在奖励通过物理(电、磁、光)刺激神经系统中的靶点来调节神经活动,并对转化医学产生重大影响的创新研究。

  该奖项成立于2016年,由《科学》和《科学·转化医学》共同管理,每年评选出根据过去三年的研究成果所述的1500字以内的优秀论文。

  科学·品驰神经调控奖的冠军将获得2.5万美元奖励,并在《科学》杂志上发表其获奖论文。冠亚军的论文也都将在《科学》官网上进行在线发表。

  通常,奖项的颁奖典礼在每年的9月份举行,奖项联合发起方——品驰公司将为大奖得主参加颁奖典礼的行程提供赞助。

  奖项联合发起方: Science/AAAS

  美国科学促进协会(AAAS)成立于1848年,是世界上最大的综合性科学学会,与262个专业学协会协作,为全球1000多万名会员提供服务。AAAS也是期刊《科学》、《科学·转化医学》、《科学·信号转导》、《科学·进步》、《科学·免疫学》以及《科学·机器人》的出版方。其中,由著名发明家托马斯·爱迪生投资创办的《科学》是全世界经同行评议的综合科学类期刊中发行量最大的一本期刊,读者总数超过40万。

  非营利性的AAAS(网站: www.aaas.org)对所有人开放,通过向公众传播科学价值、帮助政府制定科技政策、推动科学教育、协助科研人员的职业发展等活动,履行其“促进科学,服务社会”的使命。公众可以免费阅读《科学》的每日在线新闻和社论,并且,任何具有广泛公共卫生意义的论文以及所有发表12个月后的研究文章都将提供免费阅读。《科学》杂志将进一步通过各种努力,为世界上最贫穷国家的科研工作者提供免费阅读。

  奖项联合发起方:《科学·转化医学》

  由美国科学促进会出版的《科学·转化医学》(Science Translational Medicine),是发表科学、工程学和医学交叉领域的先进研究论文的在线周刊。《科学·转化医学》的目标是通过提供一个论坛,在医学相关的既定学科和新兴学科中交流最新的生物医学研究发现,以促进人类健康。

  尽管50年来,我们对人类生物学的基本理解和强大的新技术的出现已经取得了进展,但将这一知识转化为有效的新疗法和健康措施的速度却很慢。《科学·转化医学》旨在发表鉴定并填补生物医学研究和医学应用交叉处的科学知识空白的文章,以加速将这些知识转化为预防、诊断和治疗人类疾病的新对策。

  科学·品驰奖历届获奖者简介:

  2018 Grand Winner

  头奖获得者

  Nir Grossman received a B.Sc. in physics from the Israeli Institute of Technology (Technion), an M.Sc. in electromagnetic engineering from the Technical University of Hamburg-Harburg, and a Ph.D. in neuroscience from Imperial College London. He then completed a postdoc training at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Harvard University. Grossman is now an assistant professor at Imperial College London and a fellow of the UK Dementia Research Institute. The long-term goal of his research is to develop neuromodulatory interventions for brain disorders by direct control of the aberrant neural activity.

  2018 Runner-up

  次奖获得者

  Aryn Gittis received undergraduate degrees from Brandeis University and a Ph.D. from the University of California, San Diego. After completing her postdoctoral fellowship at the Gladstone Institute of Neurological Disease–University of California, San Franciso, Gittis started her lab in the Department of Biological Sciences at Carnegie Mellon University in 2012. Her research uses mouse models of Parkinson's disease combined with electrophysiology and optogenetics to understand the cellular basis of motor dysfunction and to develop novel strategies for intervention.
