The Vice-Chancellor’s Awards are a University-wide celebration of our outstanding people. They celebrate excellence, dedication, courage, ambition and inspirational contributions to Oxford’s mission.
There were nearly 170 award entries across the 13 categories this year, including over 1,000 individuals. Please join us in congratulating OrganOx who has been shortlisted for an award.
Co-founders Professor Peter Friend and Professor Constantin Coussios were nominated in the Commercialisation and Entrepreneurship Award category for their work on commercialising research into life-saving organ preservation technology, saving over 8,000 lives and achieving a landmark $1.5bn commercial exit.
The winners and highly commended nominees will be announced at a ceremony at the new Schwarzman Centre for the Humanities. All staff are invited to the Awards Showcase on Tuesday 2 June in the same location, where they can:
- Engage, network and spark collaborations with new teams
- Explore display boards and exhibitor stands to learn about the shortlisted projects and their impact on communities and society
- Experience the spaces and facilities at the new Schwarzman Centre firsthand.
