[CapoCaccia - announce] Misha Prize Reminder

[Tobi Delbruck (INI)]

    CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS


      The 2022 Misha Mahowald Prize for Neuromorphic Engineering


      and


      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 
award is for an individual or a group. 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 Award* recognizes 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 at 23:59 
UTC, 31 October 2022.*
