Call for Nominations: Dov Gabbay Prize for Logic and Foundations
================================================================

THE PRIZE

The ''Dov Gabbay Prize for Logic and Foundations'' is a new international
research prize established to honour the extraordinary, multi-faceted
scientific contributions of Prof. Dov Gabbay, known among others for editing 
an extensive collection of Logic Handbooks. It has been launched on the 
occasion of Dov's 77th birthday this October (Short bio:
https://dgp.iloaf.org/dov.html).

The prize aims at rewarding outstanding researchers in Logic and Foundations, 
including Mathematical, Philosophical, and Computational Logic. It pays special
attention to work combining - ideally - foundational insight and conceptual 
innovation with sophisticated theoretical analysis.

The winner will receive a cash prize 2001 EUR and be invited to give a talk 
(accessible for an online audience) at a major logic centre or a logic-related 
meeting in 2023, depending on the recipient's research area. Specific efforts 
will be made to promote the rewarded scientific work.

NOMINATION

Each nomination of a researcher should provide an accessible justification and 
list the main publications considered relevant.

It should also include the name, affiliation, and email address of the
nominator. Self-nominations are not allowed, the nominee should not be a

Proposals in pdf-format are to be sent to "dgp[at]iloaf[dot]org". The deadline 
for this call is January 31, 2023. Early submissions in December are 
appreciated.

DECISION

The selection is made by an independent jury consisting of six internationally 
renowned logicians representing Mathematical, Philosophical, and Computational 
logic:

    Johan van Benthem (Amsterdam University/U Stanford)
    Christoph Benzmueller (University of Bamberg)
    Agata Ciabattoni (TU Vienna)
    Laura Giordano (Università del Piemonte Orientale)
    Hannes Leitgeb (LMU Munich)
    Philip Welch (University of Bristol)

The winner of the 2022 call will be announced in May 2023.
