CAIMS-Mprime Industrial Mathematics Prize

The CAIMS-Mprime annual industrial mathematics prize is to be awarded
to a researcher in recognition of exceptional research in any branch of
industrial mathematics, interpreted broadly. The nominee's research
should have been conducted primarily in Canada. This Prize would not
only be a high honour to bestow upon an individual, but also an
acknowledgement of industrial mathematics as a fundamental and vibrant
discipline within the research culture of Canada.

Nomination: Nominations must be submitted by FEBRUARY 29 to CAIMS/Mprime
by a sponsor who is responsible for providing the following information:

    a curriculum vitae
    a publication list
    a cover letter explaining the basis of the nomination
    a maximum of three additional letters of support

Unsuccessful nominations which continue to meet the eligibility criteria
will be automatically considered for a second year.

Prize Selection Committee: The recipient of the prize will be decided
by a prize selection committee consisting of four experts, who will
serve for two-year terms. Two of them will be appointed by the
President of CAIMS and two will be selected by the Mprime Scientific
Director. Decisions will be announced in April.

THE AWARD

The award will consist of a cash prize of $1,000 and a commemorative
plaque that will be presented at the CAIMS Annual Meeting. The recipient
will be invited to deliver a lecture at the CAIMS Annual Meeting in the
year of the award. A travel allowance will be provided.

Nominations should be sent to:
