Spectroscopy Emerging Leader in Molecular Spectroscopy: Nomination Form

The Spectroscopy Emerging Leader in Molecular Spectroscopy Award recognize the achievements and aspirations of a talented young molecular spectroscopist who has made strides early in his or her career toward the advancement of molecular spectroscopy techniques and applications. The winner must be within 10 years of receiving his or her PhD in the year the award is presented.

The award will be given to a researcher who has focused the majority of his or her work in the field of vibrational or electronic spectroscopy, with direct contributions to Raman, infrared, near-infrared, terahertz, fluorescence, and/or UV-vis spectroscopy through original research on the development or advancement of theory, instrumentation, measurement techniques, or applications.
