Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Awards

The Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Awards are presented annually to early-career researchers in chemistry by The Camille and Henry Dreyfus Foundation, Inc., to support their research and teaching careers. Established in 1970, the program was divided into two awards in 1994: the Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Awards for research universities and the Henry Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Awards for primarily undergraduate institutions. The awards consist of a monetary prize, initially $75,000, which increased to $100,000 starting in 2019. Notably, seven Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Award recipients have won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, including Paul L. Modrich, Richard R. Schrock, Robert H. Grubbs, K. Barry Sharpless, Ahmed H. Zewail, Mario J. Molina, and Yuan Tseh Lee. This list includes all pre-1994 Teacher-Scholars and subsequent Camille Dreyfus awardees.
