Dear colleagues,

The *EuroVis Best PhD Dissertation Award* recognizes outstanding dissertations in academic research and development over topics relevant to visualization. The intent of this award is to recognize excellent young researchers in their early career and to highlight visualization research. Eligibility: all English language dissertations that have been successfully defended between Jan 1, 2015 and Dec 31, 2017 are eligible for the 2018 competition. Submission: the student’s advisor should email the nomination package to Jean-Daniel Fekete (Jean-Daniel.Fekete at inria.fr); it should contain: 1) a nomination letter written by the student’s advisor including the name, email address of the candidate, a one-page summary of the significance of the dissertations, and 2) a copy of the dissertation. 3) Optional additional letters of recommendation can also be attached. Deadline for nominations is *March, 9th 2018*.

The *EuroVis Young Researcher Award* is given each year to one young researcher in the field who has already made a significant contribution to visualization in general and more specifically to the European visualization community (e.g., through outstanding scientific contributions to the EuroVis conference (https://www.eurovis2018.org/)). The intent of this award is to recognize people early on in their career who have already made a notable contribution and are likely to make more. Nominations: Members of the visualization research community may nominate individuals for the EuroVis Young Researcher Award by contacting the awards chair, Eduard Gröller (groeller at cg.tuwien.ac.at). Candidates to the EuroVis Young Researcher Award 2018 must have finished their PhD in 2013 or later. Deadline for nominations is *March, 9th 2018*.
