The jury members decided to attribute the Emmy Noether Distinction to Prof. Cristiane Morais Smith, “for her outstanding contributions to the theory of condensed matter systems and ultracold atoms to unveil novel quantum states of matter”.
The summer 2019 EPS Emmy Noether Distinction is awarded to Sarah Köster from the Institute for X-Ray Physics, Georg-August-University Göttingen, Germany.
On 4 February 2019, the Emmy Noether distinction was presented to Dr. Chiara Mariotti [CM] at CERN. She was interviewed by Luc Bergé [LB], chair of the Equal Opportunities Committee of the EPS.
It is a great pleasure to announce that the Winter 2018 EPS Emmy Noether Distinction for Women in Physics goes to Dr. Chiara Mariotti from INFN, Italy, and CERN, Geneva, Switzerland.
It is a great pleasure to announce that the Winter 2017 EPS Emmy Noether Distinction for Women in Physics goes to Dr. Françoise Remacle from the University of Liege in Belgium.
On 1st December 2017, the Emmy Noether distinction was presented to Dr. Catalina Curceanu (Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati, INFN, Italy), by the EPS Equal Opportunity Committee (EOC) Chair, on behalf of the EPS.
In 2013, the European Physical Society [EPS] launched the Emmy Noether Distinction to recognise noteworthy women physicists.
Emmy Noether, with her fundamental and revolutionary work in the areas of abstract algebra and theoretical physics, is a role model for future generations of physicists. The laureates of the Emmy Noether Distinction are chosen for their capacity to inspire with their scientific merits the next generation of scientists, and especially encourage women to pursue a career in physics.
It is a great pleasure to announce that the Spring-Summer 2017 EPS Emmy Noether Distinction for Women in Physics goes to Dr. Catalina Curceanu from the Frascati National Laboratory of the Italian Institute for Nuclear Research (LNF-INFN).
It is a great pleasure to announce that the Autumn-Winter 2016 EPS Emmy Noether Distinction for Women in Physics goes to Dr. Patricia Bassereau from the Institute Curie of the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) in Paris, France. Patricia is a world leader at the Physics-Biology interface and carries out outstanding research on the physics of bio-membranes. She is a role model for how soft matter scientists coming from the physical sciences can make contributions in biology.
It is a great pleasure to announce that the Spring-Summer 2016 EPS Emmy Noether Distinction for Women in Physics goes to Dr. Eva Monroy from the Institute for Nanoscience and Cryogenics (INAC) of the Commissariat à l’Energie Atomique in Grenoble, France. Eva is involved in outstanding research work on nitride semiconductors nanostructures and has designed and achieved nitride quantum structures that have allowed her to demonstrate the shortest emission wavelength from intersubband transition in a material system.
On 4 July 2016, the Autumn-Winter 2015 Emmy Noether Distinction was presented to Prof. Sibylle Günter, Director at the Max Planck Society and Director of the Max-Planck Institute for Plasma Physics, Garching, Germany, by Prof. Quang Tran, member of the Executive Committee of EPS, on behalf of the EPS President.
In 2013, the European Physical Society [EPS] launched the Emmy Noether Distinction to recognise noteworthy women physicists.
Emmy Noether was an influential theoretical physicist, and a role model for future generations of physicists. The laureates of the Emmy Noether Distinction are chosen for their capacity to inspire the next generation of scientists, and especially encourage women to handle careers in physics.
