WEMDCD Alessandro Costabeber Best Student Paper Award                                                                                                 

The WEMDCD Alessandro Costabeber Best Student Paper Award is to be presented for up to three technical papers (in no order), for outstanding technical contribution and competence displayed in a poster presented at WEMDCD. Orally-presented papers and keynote papers are not eligible.

Student paper submissions require the first author to be a student or an early career researcher who has been awarded the PhD not earlier than April 2020 included. Only the papers presented by the first author are eligible, regardless of the registration type.

The WEMDCD Alessandro Costabeber Best Student Paper Award is at its first edition and has been established in Memory of Alessandro Costabeber for the valued, supportive and fair supervision he has always provided at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Alessandro was a tremendously valued colleague and his work ethic was very strong regardless of whether he was doing research or teaching. He was supremely talented at both with a strong portfolio of imaginative research and a collection of teaching prizes.

The award will be announced during the WEMDCD closing ceremony.
