Dear Colleagues,

We invite you to nominate young and promising scientists for the 2020 
Hermann Weyl Prize awarded by the Standing Committee of the 
International Colloquium on Group Theoretical Methods in Physics (ICGTMP).
The purpose of the Hermann Weyl Prize is to provide recognition for 
young scientists who have performed top level original work in the area 
of understanding physics through symmetries.

The Prize, which is awarded every two years, consists of a certificate 
citing the accomplishments of the recipient, prize money, and an 
allowance towards attendance at the ICGTMP in Cotonou (Benin), July 
13-17 2020, where the Prize will be awarded.

To be eligible for the Hermann Weyl Prize, the candidate should be 
either 35 years of age or younger, or be within 5 years of having 
received the doctoral degree, at the time of the deadline of the
