IUPAP Early Career Scientist Prize

The IUPAP C16 Early Career Scientist Prize recognizes outstanding contributions made by scientists at early stages of their careers in the field of Plasma Physics. IUPAP is pleased to announce that the 2024 IUPAP Early Career Scientist Prize on Plasma Physics is awarded to
Vinícius Njaim Duarte (Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory, PPPL) for elucidating the mechanism behind the nature of the nonlinear response of Alfvénic waves in fusion experiments, and for the advancement of collisional plasma kinetic theory that led to a self-consistent transport theory, established from first principles and successfully applied to the dynamics of fusion plasmas and self-gravitating systems.
