Læs følgende nyheder for uge 22 Planeters kredsløb afhænger af deres størrelse Små planeter kredser i cirkelbaner - store planeter i aflange baner. Det er helt ny og overraskende viden, som kan vise sig at være meget vigtig også i eftersøgningen efter liv på andre planeter.

Igen i år vil priserne blive tildelt som anerkendelse for kollegers særlige indsats i løbet af det akademiske år 2014-15. Medarbejdere ved fakultetet, som har leveret en ekstraordinær og bemærkelsesværdig indsats inden for ST's opgaver både i forhold til uddannelse, forskning, erhvervssamarbejde, myndighedsbetjening og også inden for teknisk-administrativ støtte samt forskning på ph.d.-niveau kan komme i betragtning. Alle medarbejdere inviteres hermed til at indstille kolleger til hver af nedenstående kategorier af ST Awards 2015. Institut- og centerledere samt funktionschefer bedes fremsende en prioriteret indstilling med motivation (max. 1 side pr. kollega + evt. CV) til Ida (img@au.dk<mailto:img@au.dk>) og/eller Birgitte So-Young Ahn (bsa@au.dk<mailto:bsa@au.dk>) senest d. 28. maj 2015. · ST Science Award 2015: Tildeles et fremragende forskningsresultat · ST Industrial Collaboration Award 2015: Tildeles et fremragende erhvervssamarbejde · ST Education Award 2015: Tildeles en fremragende underviser/undervisningsinitiativ* · ST Talent Award 2015: Tildeles en fremragende ph.d.-studerende · ST Public Sector Consultancy Award 2015: Tildeles en fremragende indsats ift. myndighedsbetjening · ST TAP Award 2015: Tildeles en fremragende TAP-indsats * Til prisen ST Education Award 2015 bliver de studerende via SciTech-Tinget bedt om at indstille kandidater. I er selvfølgelig også velkomne til at nominere kolleger til denne pris. Vi er klar over, at priserne anerkender resultater, som sjældent er opnået af én medarbejder alene. I tilfælde hvor en gruppe af kolleger har løftet i flok, håber vi alligevel, at I kan udpege en specifik medarbejder til at modtage prisen på vegne af gruppen. Tilmelding til ST-sommerfesten kan ske herfra: http://scitech.medarbejdere.au.dk/sommerfest Vi ser frem til en fantastisk sommerfest i juni.
