The Wiley Prize in Biomedical Sciences, awarded annually by the Wiley Foundation, honors exceptional scientists for groundbreaking discoveries that have not yet gained significant recognition. This prestigious award includes a $50,000 prize and a celebratory luncheon, where recipients present their work, which is live-streamed for global audiences. The foundation encourages diversity among nominees, aiming to recognize a wide range of contributions in the field of biomedical sciences.

The Wiley Foundation was established to support the scientific community and reward those who work tirelessly to open new fields of research and understanding of the scientific process.
