The European Magnetism Association (EMA) is a European non-profit scientific organization[1] [2] that supports magnetism research activities in Europe through conferences, training activities and scientific awards. Its awards include the Dominique Givord Award[3] and the EMA Young Scientist Award.[4][5]

History

edit

EMA was founded in 2016 during the Joint European Magnetic Symposia (JEMS).[1][6] The association operates under statutes that define its governance structure, including a General Council composed of national representatives and an Executive Board.[7] The General Council [8] consists of representatives from European countries active in magnetism research and defines the association’s general policy and oversight of its activities.

Activities

edit

EMA is associated with the European magnetism conference series Joint European Magnetic Symposia (JEMS), which rotates between different European host cities and covers topics in fundamental and applied magnetism.[6]

EMA also organises the European School on Magnetism (ESM), a recurring training event aimed primarily at doctoral students and early-career researchers.[9]

Awards

edit

EMA presents two scientific awards: the EMA Young Scientist Award, awarded annually, and the Dominique Givord Award, awarded every three years.[3][5]

EMA Young Scientist Award

edit

The EMA Young Scientist Award recognises early-career researchers for contributions to magnetism and is presented during the Joint European Magnetic Symposia (JEMS).[5]
