All recipients shall be members in good standing of SMA.
The title of SMA Young Investigator Award is introduced to recognize outstanding accomplishments, particularly outstanding published papers in the area of Solid Modeling, by researchers of 40 years or younger. Eligibility requires that the nominee not turn 41 in the year the award is presented.
