Research across the University has been celebrated at a presentation of Kent’s annual Research Prizes.
Twelve prizes were presented for exceptional achievements over the past year from publications in top-ranked journals to high citation rates, significant funding awards and impact through public engagement and policy development.
The prizes were presented by the Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Research and Innovation Professor Philippe De Wilde during a gala dinner in Darwin Conference Centre on 1 April. Guests at the ceremony, compered by Professor of Genetics Darren Griffin, included Deans, Heads of School, nominators and the winners themselves.
The Research Prizes scheme has generated considerable interest across the University since its launch in 2014. This year, more than 35 applications from 15 of the University’s Schools were received.
Congratulations to all the prize winners.
