Every year, five outstanding young researchers receive the EliteForsk Award, one of Denmark's most prestigious research awards. This year, our very own Professor Ulrik Lund Andersen was one of the recipients.
The prize, which is instituted by the Higher Education Ministry and consists of 1,000,000 DKK for research activities and 200,000 DKK for personal use, was awarded on 7 February 2013 at a ceremony in Glyptoteket.
The motivation for granting the award to Ulrik focused on his substantive and influential research production that he has accumulated over a relatively short career.
We are very proud of this recognition of Ulrik and the work of him and the group. Read more on the following links:
