Scientific research is a highly competitive process, and winning prestigious awards, honours, and grants is the result of an exceptionally high standard in research. This page celebrates the IMP's successful scientists and also highlights awards and honours as a third-party endorsement of scientific excellence.
If an IMP scientist is awarded an honour or competitive grant, the entire institute takes pride in this achievement. The list below, arranged by year, celebrates the merit of hard-working individuals. Moreover, it also provides valuable evidence for the high scientific standard that the IMP is committed to. The list contains a selection of honours and is not comprehensive.
