IOP Divisions
Mott lectureship
Nominations are now sought for the Mott lectureship 2009
The Mott lectureship is awarded annually by the IOP Condensed Matter and Materials Physics Division. It is awarded to an outstanding researcher whose work has predominantly been done at a UK or Irish institution and who, in the view of the division steering committee, will present an informative and lucid talk on their research.
The award consists of an invitation to give a plenary lecture at the annual CMMP conference and presentation of a book by, and a photograph of, Professor Sir Nevill Mott.
Those wishing to make a nomination are asked complete a nomination form.
The closing date for the receipt of nominations is 1 March 2009.
The CMMP Division Committee will particularly welcome nominations of younger research workers, in particular those whose research has some connection with Sir Nevill’s own interests: collision theory, nuclear problems and the properties of metals and semiconductors.
