IPSWICH — New England Biolabs is inviting scientists to apply for the 2026 Passion in Science Awards, which recognizes people who use their passion for science to affect positive change.
The awards recognize those working to make a difference in four different areas: scientific mentorship, humanitarian service, environmental stewardship, and artistic, creative spirit.
New England Biolabs introduced the Passion in Science Awards in 2014 to celebrate individuals within the scientific community who are helping to make the world a better place. Since then, it has recognized 54 sciences from around the world.
“The inspiring work and ethos embodied by these individuals are helping to shape the science of tomorrow,” said Andy Bertera, Executive Director of Marketing and Sales.
Awardees will have the opportunity to travel to New England Biolabs’ campus in Ipswich and participate in an awards dinner, round table discussions, and seminars with fellow scientists who share similar passions.
They will also receive a $1,000 scholarship to advance their work or a $1,000 donation to the charity of their choice.
Applications may be submitted at NEBPassionInScience.com. The deadline for applications is May 29th, 2026. Winners will be announced by July 24th, 2026 and notified via email.
