The Polymer Division recognises contributions to polymer science and/or technology in Australia and New Zealand by way of the Polymer Division Citations. Nominations are now sought for the 2012 Citations which will be presented during the 33rd Australasian Polymer Symposium in February 2012. Nominations may be submitted by a person seeking the award, by two members of the RACI or by invitation from the Standing Committee of the Polymer Division. The closing date for applications is September 15th 2011. Further details can be obtained from {dgcontactinfo 21}[name], the awards coordinator of the Polymer Division, at [email_to]{/dgcontactinfo}. If no applications of sufficient quality are received, no citation may be awarded.
