Guidelines for nominators and candidates

Find out who is eligible for this lectureship, about the nomination process and see who is on the selection panel.

Since 2016, the Analyst Lectureship has been chosen through a process whereby nominations of candidates are invited from our community. As part of the Å·ÃÀAV, we believe we have a responsibility to promote inclusivity and accessibility to improve diversity. Where possible, we encourage each nominator to consider nominating candidates of all genders, races, and backgrounds.

To be eligible for the Analyst Lectureship, the candidate must:

  • Have completed their PhD
  • Have published in Analyst in the past 3 years
  • Be working in a research area within the scope of Analyst
  • Be at an early stage of their independent career (typically this will be within 10 years of completing their PhD, but appropriate consideration will be given to those who have taken a career break or followed a different study path).
  • Nominations can be made by anyone and must be sent via email
  • Self-nominations are not permitted
  • All nominators will be asked to confirm that, to the best of their knowledge, their nominee’s professional standing is such that there is no confirmed or potential impediment to them receiving the Lectureship

To nominate a candidate, please provide:

  1. The name, affiliation, website URL and contact details of the nominee

  2. An up-to-date CV (3 page maximum)

  3. A letter of recommendation, detailing the significance of the candidates’ contribution(s) within the last 5 years (500-word limit)

  4. A supporting letter of recommendation from an independent referee. For example, this could be the nominee’s post doc or PhD supervisor.

Consideration is given to all information provided in the letters of recommendation and candidate CV.  The winner of the Analyst Lectureship is selected by a panel of Editorial Board members, including the Editor-in-Chief and Executive Editor.

Journal lectureships

Our journal lectureships have the potential to inspire and support the wider scientific community and to promote the value of science to broader society. They cover various subject areas and support talented and eligible scientists in their respective career stages. We recognise career breaks and encourage nominations of individuals who have taken a break for caring responsibilities and personal circumstances, such as parental or adoption leave, family commitments or illness.
