CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS

*The 2022 Misha Mahowald Prize for Neuromorphic Engineering***

*The 2022 Mahowald Early Career Award **
*

The Misha Mahowald Prize recognizes outstanding research in neuromorphic 
engineering in a broad sense: neurally-inspired hardware, software, and 
algorithms; as well as other novel architectures. The Prize is awarded 
by a jury of international experts Chaired by Prof. Terrence Sejnowski, 
and carries a prize of USD $10,000.

The Mahowald Early Career Awardrecognizes outstanding Master's students, 
PhD doctoral students, or postdocs within one year of PhD degree 
conferral date.  The Award is for an individual (not a group) who has 
created innovative neuromorphic hardware, software, or an algorithm. 
  The Award is decided by a jury of established mid-career scientists 
Chaired by Prof. Andre van Schaik, and carries a prize of USD $2,000 
together with a guaranteed seat at either the Capo Caccia or the 
Telluride Workshops for Cognitive Neuromorphic Engineering.

Misha Mahowald, for whom the Prize and Award are named, was a 
charismatic, talented and influential pioneer of neuromorphic 
engineering whose creative life unfortunately ended prematurely. She 
worked at the California Institute of Technology, Oxford University, and 
was a founding member of the Institute of Neuroinformatics at the 
University of Zurich and ETH Zurich. Her novel designs of brain-inspired 
CMOS VLSI circuits for vision and computation have continued to 
influence a generation of engineers.

The submission deadline for both the Prize and the Award is 23:59 UTC, 
31 October 2022.
