Reminder: Misha Mahowald Prize[image: image]

The Misha Mahowald Prize <https://mahowaldprize.org/> recognizes
outstanding research in neuromorphic engineering. The Prize is named for
the late Misha Mahowald, one of the most influential pioneers of the field
of neuromorphic engineering.

The award is considered annually.

The competition is open to any individual or research group worldwide.

The Prize is for a project, not persons.

Entries will likely to fall into one or more of the following categories:

   - a neuromorphic circuit, device or system
   - a neuromorphic algorithm or operating principle
   - a tool which promotes the use of neuromorphic engineering technology

The entry may be a summary of a published or unpublished paper, or a
description of a project, product or service. Every project will be
considered on its own merits, regardless of the development budget or the
group who worked on it. We strongly encourage everyone who has developed a
novel contribution to the field to enter, no matter how large or small the
project. Projects can be submitted even if they are still in progress. They
will be judged according to the results achieved at the time of submission.

The submission of revised versions of projects that have been unsuccessful
in previous years, is strongly encouraged.
