any still suitable and promising nomination that has so far been
unsuccessful.
The international physics community has a diverse
and global membership, and both nominees and recipients of EPS awards
need to reflect that diversity to ensure that all physicists have an
opportunity to be recognized for their impact in the field. Nominations
of individuals from groups that are historically underrepresented in
physics, such as women, LGBT+ scientists, scientists from a Black or
other minority ethnic background, scientists who are refugees or have
been displaced from their country of birth, disabled scientists, and
scientists from institutions with limited resources, are especially
encouraged.
Nominees for and holders of EPS awards are expected to
meet certain standards of professional conduct and integrity. In
particular they have an obligation to avoid fabrication, falsification
and plagiarism, and they have an obligation to treat people well, which
prohibits abuse of power, requires fair and respectful relationships
with colleagues, subordinates and students, and eschews bias, whether
implicit or explicit. Violations of these standards may disqualify
people from consideration or lead to revocation of awards.
