Awards
ICQ11 Young Scientist Awards Two awards will be made for outstanding presentations/posters of scientists younger than 35 years old. Each ICQ11 Young Scientist Award comes with a cash prize of 30,000 JPY each. The Awards will be presented at the closing on Friday.Jean Marie Dubois Award As the Award Secretary for the Jean Marie Dubois Award, I am very pleased to announce that the 2010 Award will be given to Dr. Marc de Boissieu. The Award will recognize his important, pioneering work on the lattice dynamics, phasons, and atomic structure of quasicrystals.The Jean Marie Dubois Award was established to recognize important, sustained research on any aspect of quasicrystals within the 10-year period preceding the award. Professor de Boissieu is the third recipient of this award. Past winners are: Professor An Pang Tsai of Tohoku University, in 2005 - at ICQ9 in Ames, Iowa - Professor Walter Steurer of the ETH, in 2008 - at ICQ10 in Zurich, Switzerland - Following the rules governing the Award, the 2010 winner was determined by the current members of the International Advisory Board, with the exception of Board members who were themselves nominees, nominators, or written supporters of nominations. Dr. de Boissieu is a Senior Researcher at the CNRS (French National Center for Scientific Research) working at the SIMaP (Materials and Processes Science and Engineering Laboratory), Grenoble, joint laboratory between Grenoble University and CNRS. He is Chair of the Aperiodic Commission of the International Union of Crystallography, and Coordinator of the CMAC Consortium, which is the successor to the European Union’s Network of Excellence in Complex Metallic Alloys. He is an expert on diffraction techniques (x-ray and neutron elastic and inelastic scattering (including diffuse scattering) and has used these techniques extensively for the study of quasicrystalline materials. The Jean Marie Dubois Award is made possible by an endowment administered by the Iowa State University Alumni Foundation. Patricia A.
