Vision - António Champalimaud Vision Award 2014 (€ 1,000,000)

The Champalimaud Foundation is looking for nominations for its Vision Award. The deadline for submission is December 31, 2013. The Award, worth € 1 million, is given alternately between contributions to overall vision research (even numbered years) and contributions to the alleviation of visual problems, primarily in developing countries (odd numbered years). The Award does not focus only on the largest global organisations but on organisations of any size that can demonstrate high impact achievements. These could be on a local, national, regional or international level.

The Champalimaud Foundation supports individual researchers and research teams working at the cutting edge of biomedical science. It aims to stimulate novel theoretical and practical methodologies by utilising the experience of both research scientists and medical practitioners.
