About this program
The Materials Research Society, supported by The Kavli Foundation, presents the Kavli Foundation Early Career Lectureship in Materials Science to honor an early-career researcher for significant novel experimental and/or theoretical contributions; the award includes a $1,000 cash prize, a trophy, and two nights’ hotel to present a lecture at the MRS Fall Meeting. Nominees of any nationality working in materials science (need not be MRS members) should be within 10 years of receiving a Ph.D. — with discretionary exceptions for career interruptions due to family/medical leave or military service — and must hold a non-postdoctoral permanent position (assistant/associate/full professor or equivalent national-lab/industry staff) while demonstrating notable leadership and a promising research trajectory. Nominations are submitted via the MRS Awards portal and must include nominator and nominee contact details, Ph.D. date and institution, a signed 200-word letter of recommendation on letterhead, a two-page CV, and a one-page summary of contributions and service; subcommittee members, MRS Board members, the Awards Chair, and prior recipients are ineligible.
