Each year, Spectroscopy honors two outstanding professionals for their work in molecular and atomic spectroscopy.
Joseph Smith was the 2024 Emerging Leader in Molecular Spectroscopy Award winner.
The Emerging Leader in Atomic Spectroscopy Award recognizes the achievements and aspirations of a talented early-career atomic spectroscopist, selected by an independent scientific committee, the award is presented each year at the Winter Conference on Plasma Spectrochemistry.
The Emerging Leader in Molecular Spectroscopy Award recognizes the achievements of a talented early career molecular spectroscopist, selected by an independent scientific committee, the award is presented each year at the SciX Conference.
