TMB 2009 Award

Young Scientist Award

The Organizing Committee is pleased to announce the Award "Turbulent Mixing and Beyond for Youth," TMB4U, issued to a young researcher for recognition of his/her scientific contribution to the field of Turbulent Mixing and Beyond.

At TMB-2009, the awards TMB4U have been issued to

    Andrea Scagliarini
    graduate student at University of Rome "Tor Vergata," Italy
    in recognition of his excellent contribution to one of the themes of
    Second International Conference and Advanced School "Turbulent Mixing and Beyond"
    in particular, to Eulerian and Lagrangian statistics in weakly compressible turbulence

and to

    Cesar Huete Ruiz de Lira
    graduate student at University of Castilla-La Mancha, Spain
    in recognition of his excellent contribution to one of the themes of
    Second International Conference and Advanced School "Turbulent Mixing and Beyond"
