The CNRS Foundation launches the Georges Brahms Prize
To pay tribute to Georges Brahms (1919-2019), a former CNRS research director and patron of the arts, the CNRS Foundation is introducing, from 2022, an annual scientific prize in connection with his seminal work on genetics, and DNA in particular.
After examination of the applications by a jury convened by the CNRS Foundation in conjunction with the CNRS Institute of Biological Sciences, the prize is awarded to a CNRS research fellow recruited during the year in the field of DNA biology.
This year’s winner of the Prix Georges Brahms 2022 is: Priscillia Lhoumaud!
This researcher, at the Institut Jacques Monod – UMR CNRS/Université Paris Cité, will receive a €10,000 prize which will be paid to her laboratory to support her installation.
The award ceremony will take place on Wednesday November 16, 2022, in the Frédéric Joliot room at the CNRS.
The CNRS Foundation warmly congratulates Priscillia Lhoumaud!
