The Kavli Prize was established in 2008 through a joint venture between the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters, the Norwegian Ministry of Education and Research, and the foundation. The main objective for the Prize is to honor, support and recognize scientists for outstanding scientific work in the fields of astrophysics, nanoscience and neuroscience and award three international prizes every second year.
