ICF AWARDS

Every four years, ICF  bestows four gold medals, to honor Takeo Yokobori, Alan Cottrell, George Irwin and Paul Paris, and one silver medal, to honor Constance Tipper, together with the award of several ICF Honorary Fellows.

These are presented at the quaternary ICF conferences, and will next be presented at ICF-15, the 15th International Conference to be held in Atlanta, Georgia.

A description of the awards, the selection criteria, and instructions for nomination, including the nomination forms, can be downloaded using the link below.

Nominations for the awards should be submitted as a pdf file to Prof. Robert O. Ritchie at UC Berkeley, by email roritchie@lbl.gov. Selection of the winners will be made by the ICF Awards Committee and will be approved by the ICF  Executive Committee whose decision will be final.
