There are two reasons why we feel such an award is timely. First retrovi-rology is an increasingly robust and important field of science. It seems wanting that no award exists to recognize exclusively excellence in basic retrovirus research. Second although there are many scientific prizes and awards very few are targeted only to mid-career scientists. In principle the awarding of a prize carries two worthy aims. Prizes reward individuals for past achievements and prizes also bring visibility and encourage future advances in particular research problems fields. For the latter goal choosing an outstanding mid-career individual who is on the peak of his her productivity curve and who is poised for many years of best work ahead is more than appropriate.
