The FSA is awarded to a recent paper, recognized for a major breakthrough in its field. Each year, researchers worldwide are invited to nominate candidates for the award. A panel of renowned experts is asked to review and select a shortlist of award candidates in each research area. A Global Committee is appointed by the ICBS to recommend winners from a pool of shortlisted candidates from research areas in physics, mathematics, and computer science.
