Oncology Doctoral Award of the Maria Möller Foundation

The Oncology Doctoral Award of the Maria Möller Foundation honors outstanding doctoral theses in the field of oncology at the Medical Faculty of the University of Münster twice a year. With an endowment of €1,000, the foundation has been recognizing doctoral candidates from North Rhine-Westphalia since 2008 who have completed their dissertation in oncology with the highest distinction, “summa cum laude.” The award is presented during the doctoral ceremony at the end of April and October. If multiple candidates qualify for this distinction, the faculty dean’s office decides on the award after thorough review.

With this prize, the Maria Möller Foundation not only promotes scientific excellence in the health and research sector but also provides a strong incentive for advanced innovations in cancer research. Interested private individuals can apply directly through the Medical Faculty according to the semiannual deadlines, which publishes all necessary documents and dates. The Oncology Doctoral Award offers outstanding early-career researchers valuable recognition and supports them in increasing the visibility of their work and further developing follow-up projects in the field of research & innovation.
