The TÜBA Academy Prizes 2023 are now accepting nominations. The TÜBA Academy Prize was established in 2015 to honor and support distinguished scientists. Each year, the nominated scientists in one of the following fields of sciences get a TÜBA Academy Prize, specifically:
- Engineering and basic sciences
- Science of Life and Health
- Humanities and social sciences.
Each year, one prize is given in each category to a scientist who is involved with Turkish or Turkish-related subjects, meaning they work or study in Turkey.
This year’s Türkiye-related (research and studies) prize is the TÜBA Academy Prize in Health and Life Sciences.
The TÜBA Academy Prizes are awarded to researchers who have produced groundbreaking, unique work in their specialties. In each category, the nominees are assessed by a Prize Committee. The Committees, made up of distinguished scientists and TÜBA members, rigorously assess the contenders’ papers through peer review to choose potential award winners. The TÜBA Academy Council makes the award winners public.
Prize:
The Academy Prizes, comprising an Academy Medal and prize money of about $30,000
USD for each, are awarded in a special ceremony. The Prize Ceremony is held under the
auspices of the President of the Republic of Turkey.
Eligibility:
Nominations are made by TÜBA members, science academies and inter-academy
organizations and other international science institutions which are related with TÜBA.
Members of TÜBA and those who take part in the evaluation process of the prizes cannot

from public institutions and organizations in Turkey in the last three years.
