This Year's Winners Announced

Each year, CeNS awards prizes for excellent publications of CeNS members
which have been published during the past 12 months. This year, the
candidates submitted numerous articles which appeared in high-impact
journals between September 2006 and September 2007. With this award,
remarkably successful cooperation projects within CeNS as well as
outstanding research of an individual research group of CeNS are
distinguished. The winning authors were announced during the CeNS
Come-Together-Party on Friday, 23th and receive a prize money of EUR 1'000.
