About this program

The Welch Foundation offers the Robert A. Welch Award in Chemistry, a prestigious recognition of significant contributions to basic chemical research. The award, worth $500,000, aims to honor researchers who have not received similar recognition before, with a focus on the positive impact of their work on humanity.

To be considered, nominees must submit a comprehensive package, including a letter of nomination, research description, biography, a list of key publications, and supporting letters. The awardee is expected to attend the award ceremony and banquet in Houston, Texas. Nominees must not be self-nominated and are ineligible if they hold certain positions within the Welch Foundation.
