***How to Nominate***

Anyone can make a nomination. Nominations should be made by email to the 
chair of the award committee, Manuela Veloso (mmv at cs.cmu.edu 
<mailto:mmv at cs.cmu.edu>), and should consist of a short (< 1 page) 
statement that emphasizes not only the research contributions that the 
individual has made that merit the award but also how the individual’s 
current work is an important influence on the field.

NOTE: a candidate can only be considered for the award if they are 
explicitly nominated. If you
believe that someone deserves the award, then NOMINATE THEM, don't
