The Science Innnovation Award is presented annually to scientists who have recently made an important and innovative breakthrough in geochemistry. The recipient must be between 35 and 55 years of age.
The 2012 Science Innovation Award has been named in honor of Heinz Lowenstam for his work on biogeochemistry.
The subject area differs from year to year therefore the Science Innovation Award Committee is renewed every year.
