Awards
The IAS Awards Department manages the overall award activity for the Society. The Awards Department Chair is responsible for selecting committee members for each of the Society level awards given by the Society and the committees are then responsible for reviewing applicants and then selecting the individual award recipients. Self nomination is not permitted for any of the following awards. Nominations are accepted from 1 January through 1 April.
Recipients will be presented the awards at the 2023 IAS Annual Meeting or other IAS sponsored conference chosen by the recipient.
