Jacques Herbrand Prize Explained
The Jacques Herbrand Prize (French: Prix Jacques Herbrand) is an award given by the French Academy of Sciences to young researchers (up to 35 years) in the fields of mathematics and physics, and their non-military applications. The prize was created in 1996, and first awarded in 1998. In 2001, it was renamed the Grand Prix Jacques Herbrand .[1] From 1998 until 2002, both a mathematics prize and a physics prize were awarded every year; from 2003 until 2021, a mathematrics prize was awarded in odd numbered years and a physics prize in even ones; in 2022, the earlier protocol was reinstated. As of 2015, winners were awarded €15,000; this sum was later increased to €20,000.[2] [1] The prize is named after the French logician Jacques Herbrand (1908-1931).
