As time rushes by, please do not forget to take the opportunity to
boost the profile of i) your research students, ii) your department
and iii) yourself by nominating your research students for the TSG
Ramsay Medal. It's a prestigious award, usually judged by Professor
Ramsay and present & past TSG chairmen (respectively Dr Alex Maltman
& Dr Rob Butler). We're looking for high-quality publications that
have arisen directly from a postgraduate research project in any
branch of structural geology & tectonics. Just about the only
criteria are that the papers must actually be out - sorry but they
can't be in press - and that they should be presenting work the
bulk of which was carried out by the nominee.
Please do not treat this important award with apathy - you and your
students stand only to benefit from an exercise that should take you
no more than 30 minutes tops. Post your nominations to me including
four copies of the paper and a brief statement specifying explicitly
the contribution of the nominee (if the paper is multi-authored). By
November 30th at latest, please.
