The point of the Academic Award as a rigorously selective instrument for the financial and moral support of scientific excellence at the Czech Academy of Sciences is to assist outstanding scientific figures who are the bearers of research at the top international level and create for them such conditions in which they can better develop their potential in the benefit of the Czech Academy of Sciences and all of Czech science. Proposals for the granting of Academic Awards are submitted by the directors of the institutes of the CAS and the President of the Council for Sciences of the CAS.
