• Sir Richard Brook Prize

In 2010, CASC set up the Professor Sir Richard Brook Prize for the best ceramics PhD thesis in the UK, with sponsorship from Morgan Advanced Materials.

This prize aims to increase the sense of community amongst PhD students researching ceramics in the UK and to mirror the IOMMM’s AT Green Award that is available to undergraduates.

The winner of the 2017 edition was to Dr Tahsin Ali Kassam, from Brunel University. He will receive the prize at an event organised by Morgan Advanced Materials on the 6th of December.
