The time has come to nominate candidates for the Sahlgrenska Academy’s honorary doctors for 2013.
Our rules of procedure are as follows:
“9.2 Appointing honorary doctors is part of the Academy’s efforts to encourage openness and form links with society, and presents an opportunity to highlight and strengthen the Academy’s national and international network of contacts. An honorary doctorate from the Sahlgrenska Academy is recognition of outstanding scientific achievements or other contributions within the Academy’s sphere of competence.
9.3 Those who have made a significant impact in terms of research or education at the Sahlgrenska Academy, or who have contributed in some other way towards new knowledge within the Academy’s field of operations, are eligible to be awarded an honorary doctorate. Those who otherwise deserve the title of doctor through contributions within the Academy’s area of interest are also eligible for an honorary doctorate.”
All employees may make nominations. The Dean will then submit proposals to the Academy Board, which intends to reach a decision by May 4th. If you would like to nominate an honorary doctor for 2013, you should send the pdf form to the Acting Administrative Director Margareta Thelle, margareta.thelle@sahlgrenska.gu.se, no later than Friday, March 8th, 2013.
