Short description: Scientific award given by Uppsala University

Björkénska priset is a scientific award given by Uppsala University. It is awarded for outstanding research in science and the theoretical branches of medicine. The prize was established in 1893 from a donation given by university lecturer John Björkén (sv) (1833–1893). Björkén was a physician and medical assistant professor in surgery and obstetrics at Uppsala. The prize was first awarded in 1902 on the day of his death.[1][2][3]

The Björkén Prize is alternately awarded for achievement in four different fields:

  • Botany, zoology, and landscape planning
  • Chemistry, mineralogy, metallurgy, and geology
  • Physics, mechanics, and engineering science
  • Theoretical disciplines of medical sciences
