We are
pleased to announce that our distinguished colleague and LR/RL editorial
committee member, Prof. Lisa Block de Behar (University of Montevideo) has recently
been awarded a Humboldt Research Award.
The
Humboldt Research Awards offered by the German “Alexander von Humboldt”
Foundation honour outstanding and internationally recognized scholars of all
disciplines and nationalities who reside outside of Germany.
The award
represents a tribute to the lifelong academic accomplishments of the winners.
Furthermore, award winners are invited to carry out research projects of their
own choice in Germany in cooperation with German specialists for periods of
between six months and one year.
After nearly thirty years of existence the Humboldt Research Award is regarded as the most important German awarding program for internationally renowned scientists. Over 30 Humboldt-Awardees where also awarded the Nobel Prize.
