SFEL 2024 Thesis Prize - Call for entries

The Société Française pour l'Etude des Lipides (SFEL) is pleased to announce the opening of the call for applications for its 2024 thesis prize. This prize rewards research work carried out in France for a university thesis in a field related to oilseeds, fats and/or lipids: oilseed production, analysis, biochemical or physico-chemical characterization of lipids, fat processing, non-food uses, lipid nutrition, lipids and health...

The SFEL Thesis Prize is endowed with 1000 Euros 

It is open to candidates meeting the following conditions:

  • Have defended his/her thesis at the time of application, and no more than 2 years previously,
  • Be a member of the SFEL or be attached to a French research team in which at least one of the collaborators is a member of the SFEL.

The application must be sent to us by e-mail before August 30, 2024, and include the following elements, not exceeding 4 pages:

  • a letter of application
  • a CV showing titles, publications and work carried out
  • a one-page presentation of work, highlighting the main results obtained and the link with the lipids sector of interest.

Looking forward to receiving your application

Yours sincerely

Anne Le Guillou SFEL President
