The Prize is named after one of the founder members of the BNS, Prof. John Cavanagh, who had a distinguished career in experimental neuropathology and was also the founder editor of the Society Journal, Neuropathology & Applied Neurobiology.

Eligibility: Any European Neuroscientist (generally under the age of 40), nominated by member of the British Neuropathological Society.

The Prize: The Prize shall be the sum of 2000 euros, and a condition of the award will be that the individual presents a lecture at a meeting of The British Neuropathological

Society when a presentation of a suitably inscribed citation will be made. The individual will also be invited to write a review or annotation for Neuropathology and Applied Neurobiology.

Announcements: A notice asking for nominations for the Cavanagh Prize are sent to members of the Society by the Secretary, when the Committee, based on nominations, makes a recommendation which has to be agreed by the BNS committee.
