CALL FOR NOMINATIONS

The award will be officially bestowed at the opening plenary session of the EURO XXIV Conference in Lisbon, if there is a suitable candidate.

2. The EURO Gold Medal is awarded for a body of work in operational research, preferably published over a period of several years. Although recent work is not excluded, care should be taken to allow the contribution to stand the test of time.
