In accordance with tradition, the IEE RAS employee who becomes the youngest Doctor of Science receives a challenge award - an eagle on a stand made of optical calcite (Iceland spar) from Nizhnyaya Tunguska.
In December 2024, the award was received by Evgeny Vladislavovich Yesin, who defended his doctoral dissertation “Evolution of malmoid chars (Salvelinus malma complex, Salmonidae) of Kamchatka”.
Before that, since 2021, the statuette was held by Alexey Sergeevich Opaev.
We wish active work on doctoral dissertations to future winners of this award!
