On 28 July, the ALICE collaboration awarded the annual prizes for the best PhD theses at a ceremony held in the CERN Main Auditorium as part of the ALICE Physics Week. Since 2008, the collaboration has recognised the most outstanding PhD theses in the field of physics and instrumentation based on the excellence of the results obtained, the quality of the thesis manuscript and the importance of the contribution to the collaboration.

After reviewing all the theses submitted for the award, the ALICE Thesis Awards Committee selected five winners: Shreyasi Acharya (Variable Energy Cyclotron Centre, HBNI, Kolkata, India), Mattia Faggin (University of and INFN, Padova, Italy), Dimitar Mihaylov (Technische Universität München, Germany), Jasper Parkkila (University of Jyväskylä, Finland) and Mike Sas (Utrecht University, Netherlands).

The winners gave flash talks on their thesis work and received prizes and mementos from the ALICE Deputy Spokesperson, Barbara Erazmus, with congratulations from the Chair of the Collaboration Board, Marielle Chartier, and the Chairs of the selection committee, Giuseppe Bruno and Philippe Crochet.
