To submit an application, you need to log in to your personal account or register
Authorization Required
Log in to your personal account or register to submit an application for the prize. After logging in, you will need to accept the terms of use and privacy policy.
You can be nominated by any scientist as well as by the scientific committee of your organization. Self-nomination is also allowed. In our experience, self-nomination is the most popular option. It takes very little time to complete the nomination form, about 20 minutes. We don't want scholars to spend a lot of time on paperwork!
Unfortunately, no, according to the rules, the VYZOV Prize is open to adults of legal capacity.
Yes, according to the VYZOV Prize regulations, in the categories “Engineering solution”, “Breakthrough”, “Future”, “Discovery”, you can submit a collective application from a research team of no more than three people. The Author of the project will be 1 person who has made the greatest contribution to the project, and in addition to the Author of the project, it will be possible to specify up to 2 Co-authors of the project who participated in the project. In case of winning the VYZOV Prize, 50% of the money prize is awarded personally to the Author of the project, 50% is divided among the co-authors of the project in equal proportions. The category “Scientist of the Year” is strictly individual.
Each money prize amounts to 12 million Russian rubles (before tax deduction), that equivalent to ca 130 thousand US dollars.
The VYZOV Prize has five categories, each with one laureate (but there can be up to two co-laureates - except for the “Scientist of the Year” category, which is awarded to one scientist). All laureates are legal adult scientists without age restrictions (except for the youth category “Future”). Only actively working scientists or engineers can become laureates. Only scientists predominantly working in Russia can receive awards in the categories “Scientist of the Year”, “Breakthrough”, “Engineering Solution”, and “Future”, while laureates in the “Discovery” category predominantly work in other countries.
Yes. Any work that changes the landscape of science and technology can be recognized with the VYZOV Prize. This spectrum includes all exact and natural sciences, from pure mathematics to physics, chemistry, biomedicine, astronomy, and engineering. Even the most abstract scientific work will eventually lead to the creation of new technologies.
The main criterion is impact. We award those scientists and engineers whose work will maximally determine the future of science and technology.
You can always check the status of your application in your personal account on the Prize's website.
