<p class="MsoNormal"><em>This award is presented in honor of Lee
Grodzins, who, in 1955, began a postdoc position in Maurice
Goldhaber's nuclear physics group at Brookhaven National
Laboratory. There, Grodzins, Goldhaber and Andrew Sunyar
performed groundbreaking measurements of the helicity of the
neutrino. Their work has been key to our understanding of
the weak interaction. This was the start of a long and
distinguished career that includes professorship at MIT from
1959–1998, and leadership of several companies.</em><i><o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The award consists of a monetary prize and
the opportunity for the postdoc to give a colloquium on his or
her accomplishments at the Laboratory for Nuclear Science at
MIT on October 6, 2014. Nominations, due by July 15, may be
submitted at this site:<o:p></o:p></p>
