Rössler Prize
The Rössler Prize is named after its founder, Max Rössler . In 2008 he provided a corresponding fund with 10 million Swiss francs and the purpose of organizing an annual sponsorship award for ETH professors in the expansion phase of their research careers. Professors from different disciplines are taken into account who have distinguished themselves at a young age through scientific excellence and outstanding achievements in research and teaching and who have been promoted to permanent professorships. The ETH Foundation has awarded the prize annually since 2009 at the Thanks-Giving event in Zurich by the President of ETH Zurich . A jury consisting of the ETH Executive Board and an award committee selects the proposed candidates. The prize money is 200,000 Swiss francs.
