The theme of 2025 International Prize is:
Neurobiological Foundations of Human Cognition
Cognition has evolved along the human lineage and is particularly developed in Homo sapiens along with the complexity of social interactions. The elucidation of the particularities in the development, organization and functional properties of the human brain which allow these performances is a major scientific challenge. Progress in that direction requires the combination of multiple approaches and disciplines. The Prize will be awarded to an internationally recognized scholar who has significantly advanced our understanding of the neurobiological mechanisms which endow humans of their cognitive abilities.
Prize amount: €100,000
Applications should be submitted by email to infos@fondationfyssen.fr
