Important announcement:

Due to the COVID 19 pandemic, the 5^th International Conference on Matter and Radiation at Extremes will be postponed to the year of 2022.

In the year of 2021, Matter and Radiation at Extremes (MRE) will continue to organize the 2^nd MRE Young Scientist Award via MRE Webinars.

The award was first launched by the journal Matter and Radiation at Extremes in 2019, and aims to stimulate young scholars worldwide to deliver their important, original and innovative achievements in the fields of science and technology on matter and radiation at extremes.

The MRE Young Scientist Award winner receives

• A trophy and a certificate;
• Cash prize of RMB 10,000;
• A formal invitation to publish on Matter and Radiation at Extremes.
•  
• Eligibility Criteria
