Nomination
Internal nomination rules
The Ding Prize does not accept individual applications or provide a public submission portal. Candidates are nominated internally from verifiable everyday work and collaboration.
All five categories use internal committee nomination. Each member may nominate no more than two people per category.
No research plan, personal statement, exercise log, recommendation letter, or account of deeds is required.
Candidates generally need not be informed in advance; repeated inquiries do not improve the probability of winning.
