Nanotechnology prize for Mercosul researchers

The South-American Common Market (MERCOSUL) has launched the Mercosul Award of Science and Technology 2010 (note the favicon, this site was made with Joomla. Quite depressing for a web developer to see a site from the UNESCO like that. The intentions are good though.) Its focus is nanotechnology and the winning project must be able to help scientific development of any or all countries involved (Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela). The prize categories are: Scientific Initiation (U$2,000 for the winning team), University Student (U$3,500), Young Scientist (U$5,000) and Integration (U$10,000). Apart from the money the organization also offers a trophy, honourable mention board and publication of work in a book.
