The AstraZeneca Foundation brings science and society together and stimulates the social debate on the importance of clinical research. By doing so, the AstraZeneca Foundation aims to create a framework in which scientific progress can benefit society. Together with the FWO and the F.R.S.-FNRS, AstraZeneca Foundation annually awards Scientific Prizes to researchers who have carried out important work in a specific therapeutic field. This year, four Scientific Prizes are awarded for contributions in the domains of Oncology, Rare Diseases, Respiratory/Cardiometabolic and Infant mental health. Each laureate received a sum of € 25,000 to continue his innovative research.
The 2019 winners of these Scientific Awards are respectively Dr. Dmitri Krysko, Dr. Olivia Gosseries, Dr. Florence Schleich and Dr. Saskia Van der Oord.
The four winners were elected by an independent jury composed by the FWO and F.R.S.-FNRS.
