Download Nomination Form
Established in the name of John W. Landis, the Landis Public Communication and Education Award was made possible by $20,000 from his gift to the American Nuclear Society in 2004*.
The Landis Public Communication and Education Award recognizes a person for outstanding efforts, dedication and accomplishment in furthering public education and understanding of the peaceful applications of nuclear technology. This may include outstanding communication in public venues as well as exceptional work done to inform teachers, students K-12 and other audiences in public education settings about nuclear science and technology applications and nuclear careers.
This award is given to an individual who, over the course of the year, has made a significant impact in public education and communication. Nominations are made with the completed ANS nomination form accompanied by narrative summary of about 1,000 words stating accomplishments, a description of the significance of these achievements, and an appended list of publications and a brief chronological resume.
Both members and non-members are eligible for this Award, which consists of a $1,000 monetary award and engraved plaque. The Award is given during the ANS Winter Meeting. Eight sets of the form and supporting documents must be received at ANS headquarters by August 1.
* This Award replaces the ANS Public Communication Award and the Public Education Program (PEP) Service Award.
