The European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO) and the Federation of European Biochemical Societies (FEBS) are pleased to announce the first call for nominations for the FEBS/EMBO Women in Science Award. FEBS and EMBO are launching this award to highlight the major contributions being made by female life scientists to European research and to present inspiring role models for future generations of women in science. Each year the award will recognise and reward the exceptional achievements of one woman working in the life sciences in Europe. The winner will be honoured at the annual FEBS Congress, where she will receive an award of 10,000 EUR and present a special plenary lecture. The first award will be made at the 2008 FEBS Congress in Athens, Greece.
