The Ammodo Science Award for groundbreaking research demonstrates appreciation for jointly conducted research that is internationally recognised, high quality and potentially groundbreaking. Each edition, the Award includes a cash prize of 1,600,000 euros for each of the science domains Natural Sciences and Biomedical Sciences and a cash prize of 800,000 euros for each of the science domains Humanities and Social Sciences.
In addition to this new Award, Ammodo has been presenting the Ammodo Science Award for fundamental research every two years since 2015. The Ammodo Science Award for fundamental research is intended for outstanding scientists in their mid-career.
As of 2020, Ammodo will therefore present an Ammodo Science Award every year; in even years the Ammodo Science Award for groundbreaking research and in odd years the Ammodo Science Award for fundamental research.
