Robert M. May Prize
The Methods in Ecology and Evolution Robert M. May Young Investigator's Prize will be awarded each year to the best paper in the journal by a young author at the start of their research career. The winner of the Robert M. May young investigator's prize will receive £250 and membership of the BES. The winner will be selected by the Editors of Methods in Ecology and Evolution at the end of each year and an announcement is made early in the New Year following. The ceremony will be held during the BES Annual Meeting in the UK.
If the first author of a paper considers that they are eligible for this award they are invited to nominate themselves during the submission process of ScholarOne Manuscripts. Those nominated are typically under 30 years old and in the early stages of their research career, although slightly older authors who have had their careers in ecology interrupted or have developed later, will also be considered.
