Entries are now invited for the Australian Museum Eureka Prizes – Australia’s ‘Oscars of Science’ – which include a prize for science journalism, sponsored by the Federal Department of Industry, Innovation and Science. The Eureka Prize for Science Journalism is awarded to an Australian journalist or team of journalists “whose work is assessed as having most effectively communicated scientific or technological issues to the public”.
The prize, worth $10,000, can be awarded to a single piece or a body of work, that must have been published or broadcast in the Australian media for the first time between May 4, 2017 and May 4, 2018. The entry window closes on May 4, 2018, and the entry details are here.
