We have drawn together a list of prizes available for which technical staff can be nominated.

We hope this will bring an increase in visibiltity and improve the recognition for our excellent technical staff.

We will be adding more prizes to the website as we find out about them. The dates vary throughout the year so please follow the links for further information on how to nominate someone for the prizes.

Nominations are now open for the Science Council CPD awards:

Registered Scientist (RSci),
Chartered Scientist (CSci) and
Chartered Science Teacher (CSciTeach) status.

The University of Warwick recognises the importance of technical staff in conducting research within the University.

We wish to ensure Fair Attribution is obtained for the work done by technicians and we hope this will increase visibility and recognition for technicians and the facilities they run.

All researchers at the University of Warwick should be aware of the fair attribution guidelines in advance of conducting their experiments.

All nominated staff were invited to an Awards Evening at the Butterworth Hall on Friday 18 May. There were 570 nominations made this year, to celebrate the outstanding contributions of staff across the Warwick community.

Congratulations to Dr Daniel Lester who was Highly Commended. Dan is the Polymer Characterisation RTP Manager.

"Dr Daniel Lester, Manager of the Polymer Characterisation Research Technology Platform (RTP), is certainly an individual who deserves to be recognised for his essential contribution to underpinning the University's research in both polymers and the wider materials characterisation. The RTP that Daniel manages facilitates the research of 20+ groups across five departments, in addition to a considerable portfolio of external clients.

Dan is the most talented analytical scientist I have met, due to the breadth of his knowledge, the quality of his work and the 'can do' approach he has to challenges."
