Call for Nominations:
Dov Gabbay Prize for Logic and Foundations
================================================================

THE PRIZE

The ``Dov Gabbay Prize for Logic and Foundations'' is an international 
research prize established to honour the extraordinary, multi-faceted, 
and ongoing scientific and editorial work of Prof. Dov Gabbay, known in 
particular for editing an extensive collection of specialized Logic 
Handbooks. It has been launched on the occasion of his 77th birthday 
(for a short bio, see:https://dgp.iloaf.org/dov.html).

The prize rewards outstanding researchers in Logic and Foundations, 
including Mathematical, Philosophical, and Computational Logic. It 
promotes work able to inspire current and future generations of 
logicians, if not a broader audience, ideally combining deep 
foundational insight and conceptual innovation with sophisticated 
theoretical analysis.

The winner will receive 2001 EUR and be invited to give a talk 
(accessible for an online audience) at a major logic centre or a 
logic-related meeting in 2023, the choice depending on the recipient's 
research area. Additional efforts will be made to promote the rewarded 
scientific work.

NOMINATION

Each nomination has to specify the researcher, provide a justification 
accessible to non-expert logicians (0.5-2 pages), and list the 
publications considered relevant.

It also has to include the name, affiliation, and email address of the 
nominator. Self-nominations are not allowed, the nominator should not 
depend on the nominee.

Proposals in pdf-format have to be sent to "dgp[at]iloaf[dot]org". The 
deadline for this call is January 31, 2023.

DECISION

The decision is made by an independent selection committee consisting of 
six internationally renowned logicians representing Mathematical, 
Philosophical, and Computational logic (for details, 
see:https://dgp.iloaf.org). The jury can decide to attribute no prize in 
a given year. The winner of the 2022 call will be announced in May 2023.

ADMIN

Prize and process are managed by the "Logic and Foundations Initiative 
(ILOAF)", which aims at initiating and supporting scientific and 
educational activities in Logic and Foundations. It is currently 
sponsored by the Luxembourg Logic Community.
