NMRS invites nominations for the Prof. S. Subramanian's 60^th Birthday Lecture Award. The award is given annually to an outstanding scientist working in any area of magnetic resonance. The award has been instituted from an endowment received to honour Prof. S. Subramanian, formerly Professor of Chemistry at IIT-Madras and presently at NIH, Washington D.C., USA from his students and colleagues. It will be given annually to an outstanding scientist working in any area of magnetic resonance. The award consists of a cash prize of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees ten thousand only), a citation and a certificate which will be presented in a special session of the NMRS symposium. The work done in India by an applicant will be recognised for the award.

The age of the nominee should not exceed 45 years as on December 31 of the current year.

Any life member of NMRS can nominate a scientist who should also be a life member of NMRS. Self-nomination is also accepted.
