TARRYTOWN, N.Y., July 18, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: REGN) announced the winners of the seventh annual Regeneron Prize for Creative Innovation. The country's leading research universities were asked to nominate top candidates for the Regeneron Prize in the 'graduate student' and 'postdoctoral fellow' categories. In total $155,000 in prize money and donations was awarded to finalists, winners and institutions. Regeneron's selection committee awarded the top Regeneron Prizes to scientists from the University of California, San Francisco and The Rockefeller University, who each received $50,000 in prize money. In addition, one student from the Harvard Graduate School of Arts and Sciences was awarded a $10,000 honorable mention.
"The Regeneron Prize for Creative Innovation recognizes inventive, curious and talented young scientists who are at the forefront of the next generation of medical breakthroughs," said George D. Yancopoulos, M.D., Ph.D., President and Chief Scientific Officer of Regeneron. "Mankind desperately needs innovative new solutions to the very real threats we face – from climate change to increasing disease burden. Lost in the current dialogue around healthcare costs is the fact that long-term health solutions depend on innovative new approaches to prevent and cure diseases. There is nothing more important than identifying, encouraging and incentivizing the next generation of great young scientists to take on these critical challenges. We celebrate their work, and the inspiration they provide to other students pursuing science to improve human health."
Submissions were reviewed by a selection committee of senior Regeneron scientists. In May 2019, finalists visited Regeneron to tour the campus and present their 'dream' research proposals in biomedical research, which offered insight into each nominee's creativity and ability to think independently as scientists.
The two Regeneron Prize winners each received a $50,000 cash prize, and the institutions nominating them received a $5,000 donation to support their seminar series. This year's winners are:
In addition, this year Regeneron's selection committee identified a scientist to receive a $10,000 cash prize as an honorable mention. This year's honorable mention is:
Seven additional finalists received $5,000 individual prizes.
"The Regeneron Prize has seen some of the best and brightest young minds showcase their innovative dream projects over the past seven years," said Susan Croll, Ph.D., Senior Director Emeritus of Neuroscience and Director of the Regeneron Postdoctoral Training Program at Regeneron. "These impressive scientists prove once again how powerful and innovative young minds are. As early-career biomedical scientists, they have great potential to advance their respective fields and we are eager to see not only what they accomplish, but how they inspire others in the future."
Requests for applications are distributed to academic institutions late each fall. Institutions are asked to nominate two graduate students and two postdoctoral fellows. In addition to the dream project proposals, submissions must include a curriculum vitae and samples of publications that enable the selection committee to review each nominee's scholarly productivity.
