Five scientists receive Heineken Prizes 2018

The Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) has awarded five internationally renowned scientists with the prestigious Heineken Prizes. The winners receive the 2018 Heineken Prizes for their great merits to science. The prizes are $ 200,000 each and awarded every two years. The prizes will be presented on September 27, 2018 in the Muziekgebouw aan ‘t IJ in Amsterdam.

The Heineken Prizes were initiated by Dr. Alfred H. Heineken (1923-2002) in homage to his father (Dr. Henry P. Heineken, 1886-1971) and continued by his daughter, Charlene de Carvalho-Heineken (1954). Mrs de Carvalho is Chair of the Dr H.P. Heineken Foundation and the Alfred Heineken Fondsen Foundation, which fund all the Heineken Prizes.
