Call for Nom­i­na­tions. Each year the Catal­y­sis Club of Philadel­phia rec­og­nizes an out­stand­ing mem­ber of the catal­y­sis com­mu­ni­ty. This award is giv­en in recog­ni­tion of the con­tri­bu­tions to the advance­ment of Catal­y­sis. Such an advance­ment can be sci­en­tif­ic, tech­no­log­i­cal, or in orga­ni­za­tion­al lead­er­ship.
