George W. Brindley Lecture

revised (05/15/2008)

Intent of the Award

The G. W. Brindley lecture is intended to recognize a clay scientist who will infuse the Society with new ideas, someone who is both a dynamic speaker and involved in innovative research. Dr. Brindley himself approved the concept of The Lecture, and the speaker should deliver a lecture that Brindley himself would applaud.

Nominations should consist of a cover letter from the nominator, a curriculum vitae, and two supporting letters.

Nominating materials must be received by the committee chair no later than 31 March 2009. Electronic submission is preferred:
