The Myrto Georgakopoulou Award will support PhD students or early-career scholars (up to 8 years upon receiving their PhD) to undertake research on the archaeology of the Aegean and adjacent areas. Successful applicants should have completed at least one year of doctoral research by the time they take up the award. Studies will pertain to any of the fields of archaeological science, with emphasis on archaeometallurgy or ceramic analysis. 

The Myrto Georgakopoulou Award is an international research award established by the BSA to honour Myrto Georgakopoulou (1976-2022) and ensure that her legacy inspires future work in Aegean archaeology and beyond. The award is supported by the Myrto Georgakopoulou Memorial Fund, established by gifts of her family, friends and colleagues, in her memory.
