International Water Mist Association to honour best Ph.D in 2017

Next year the International Water Mist Association (IWMA) will again present the ‘IWMA Young Talent Award,’ which, unlike in 2016, when the master thesis was honoured, will instead go to the best Ph.D. thesis.
The prize includes an invitation to the 17th International Water Mist Conference which will take place in Rome on 20-21 September 2017. The winner will get the opportunity to present her or his Ph.D. thesis and the IWMA will cover travel and accommodation expenses. Apart from that, the winner will receive a one year free IWMA membership and there will be a prize money of €1,000.
Deadline for the submission of entries is 30 April 2017 and these will be assessed by the IWMA Scientific Council. On 30 June 2017 the winner will be notified.
The detailed rules and regulations can be downloaded from the IWMA webpage.
