2027 Warren Alpert Foundation Prize

An international prize recognises scientific discoveries that prevent, cure or treat human disorders, or seminal biomedical research with strong potential to change disease treatment. Up to five scientists may be nominated together for a discovery. The dossier includes an explanation of the contribution, references, a proposed citation, CVs and two support letters. An associated scientific symposium honours recipients. Nominations are due on 9 November 2026.

Living scientists, physicians or researchers nominated by someone else; self-nomination is not accepted. Nominees cannot already have received a Nobel Prize for the same discovery. Multiple nominations from an institution are permitted.
