TARRYTOWN, N.Y., June 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: REGN) today announced the winners of the eighth annual Regeneron Prize for Creative Innovation, which celebrates and rewards cutting-edge thinking from the next generation of young scientists. In total, $160,000 in prize money and donations was awarded to winners, finalists and institutions to advance innovative scientific research, with two top prizes of $50,000 each awarded to two scientists from NYU Grossman School of Medicine and a $10,000 honorable mention awarded to a student from the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. Eight other finalists also received awards of $5,000 each.
"At Regeneron, we have always believed that science and technology are key to combating many of the truly existential threats facing humanity – whether it be disease or climate change – and the current pandemic only highlights the need to inspire and support the next generation of young scientists to take on these challenges," said George D. Yancopoulos, M.D., Ph.D., Co-Founder, President and Chief Scientific Officer of Regeneron. "Congratulations to these young leaders who push the boundaries of thought in science and technology – they are our future and we look forward to seeing how they help improve the world."
As part of the Regeneron Prize for Creative Innovation, the country's leading research universities were asked to nominate top candidates in the graduate student and postdoctoral fellow categories. Submissions were reviewed by a selection committee of senior Regeneron scientists. In May 2020, finalists presented 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. 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:
"Each year, the Regeneron Prize allows us the opportunity to be inspired by the dreams of young scientists, and this year is no exception," said Susan Croll, Ph.D., Senior Director Emeritus of Neuroscience and Director Emeritus of the Regeneron Postdoctoral Training Program at Regeneron. "These young scientists are posing complex scientific questions and bringing creativity to their answers. We look forward to seeing what they accomplish."
