IAS/ANRS Lange/Van Tongeren Prizes for Young Investigators – Annual prizes

The four US$2,000 IAS/ANRS Lange/van Tongeren Prizes for Young Investigators are jointly funded by the IAS and the France Recherche Nord & Sud Sida-HIV Hépatites (ANRS) to support young researchers who demonstrate innovation, originality, rationale and quality in the field of HIV research. The prizes are granted to the top-scoring abstract in each of the four tracks: Track A (basic science); Track B (clinical science); Track C (prevention science); and Track D (social, behavioural and implementation science). In 2015, the Young Investigator Prize was permanently renamed in memory of Joep Lange and Jacqueline van Tongeren.

Eligible candidates are presenting authors of abstracts submitted to IAS 2019, which meet the following criteria:

• The Scientific Programme Committee has accepted the abstract as an oral presentation, for a poster discussion session or for the poster exhibition.
• The research demonstrates innovation, originality, rationale and quality.
• The presenting author is under 35 years of age.

Abstract submitters do not need to apply for the prize.

All abstracts that meet the criteria will be automatically considered.
