We are delighted to announce a major highlight in the upcoming academic calendar: On June 25, 2026, we will celebrate the presentation of the CRIION Joachim Frank Prize for Biomedical Sciences and, for the very first time, the CRIION Joachim Frank Prize for Clinical Medicine.

These awards honor outstanding scientific achievements that bridge the gap between theoretical research and practical medical application—fields that have defined and connected our collective work for many years.

A Distinguished Guest of Honor

The ceremony will take place in a prestigious setting, and we are deeply honored to welcome the awards’ namesake in person: Nobel Laureate Professor Joachim Frank, PhD, will attend the ceremony to personally honor the prize winners.
