Silver Jubilee Award

To support postdoctoral and young independent researchers, and to recognise our Silver Jubilee, MGMS has established a Silver Jubilee Prize. This is awarded to outstanding young researchers in the field.


10th MGMS Silver-Jubilee Award was won by:

David Glowacki
Dr David Glowacki
University of Bristol

The MGMS is delighted to award the 10th Silver Jubilee Prize to Dr David Glowacki. Dr Glowacki graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 2003, but then moved to the UK, obtaining an MA from Manchester University in 2004 and a PhD in Physical Chemistry from the University of Leeds in 2008. He currently holds a Royal Society Research Fellowship at the University of Bristol and is a visiting scholar at Stanford University. Dr Glowacki's work embraces both the sciences and the arts, exploring the interface between the two in terms of human perception; he has published in the fields of dynamics and non-equilibrium system simulations, but also scientific visualisation and digital aesthetics. The award recognises his ongoing, interdisciplinary work.
