If you know an individual, a small team of researchers, or an institution that would be a strong candidate for the Individual or Institutional Einstein Foundation Award, we encourage you to submit a recommendation. 

This informal recommendation is intended as an easy way to bring outstanding candidates to our attention — especially for those who may not have the time or resources to submit a full nomination. Based on your recommendation, we may follow up directly with the candidate or their institution to encourage or facilitate a formal nomination during the next call for entries.

Please note: A recommendation does not replace or gurantee a formal nomination. Full nominations can be submitted once the annual call for entries is open.
