This work, for which the early-career researcher is the corresponding author, should already have been published and must not be more than two years old at the time of nomination. The nominee should represent an independent field of research, but not yet hold an established academic or industrial position.

The award is offered by the Wöhler Association for Inorganic Chemistry of the GDCh and the European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry (EurJIC). The award is endowed with EUR 1500.–.

The EurJIC-Wöhler Young Investigator Prize will be awarded to an early-career researcher of any nationality who has completed a PhD or equivalent degree in Chemistry for an outstanding scientific publication in a field of Inorganic Chemistry. The selected paper, for which the candidate is the corresponding author, should have been published within the two years preceding the nomination. The nominee will be an independent researcher, but not yet in an established academic or industrial position. Researchers in industry or academia with responsibility in an appropriate field are eligible to make nominations.
