Guidelines for nominators and candidates
Find out who is eligible for this lectureship, about the nomination process and see who is on the selection panel.
Since 2016, the Analyst Lectureship has been chosen through a process whereby nominations of candidates are invited from our community. As part of the Royal Society of Chemistry, we believe we have a responsibility to promote inclusivity and accessibility to improve diversity. Where possible, we encourage each nominator to consider nominating candidates of all genders, races, and backgrounds.
To be eligible for the Analyst Lectureship, the candidate must:
- Have completed their PhD
- Have published in Analyst in the past 3 years
- Be working in a research area within the scope of Analyst
- Be at an early stage of their independent career (typically this will be within 10 years of completing their PhD, but appropriate consideration will be given to those who have taken a career break or followed a different study path).
When open, nominations can be made by anyone and must be sent via email. Self-nominations are not permitted. All nominators will be asked to confirm that, to the best of their knowledge, their nominee’s professional standing is such that there is no confirmed or potential impediment to them receiving the Lectureship.
To nominate a candidate, please provide:
- A recommendation letter, including the name, contact details and website URL of the nominee
- A one-page CV for the nominee, including their date of birth, summary of education and career, a list of up to five of their top independent publications, total numbers of publications
- A one-page statement of achievement with a lay summary, written by the nominee describing their best accomplishments
- A supporting letter of recommendation from an independent referee. Ideally this could be for example the nominee’s post doc or PhD supervisor.
Consideration is given to all information provided in the letters of recommendation, candidate CV and nomination form. The winner of the Lectureship is selected by a panel of Editorial Board members.
