Established in 1997, Carnegie Science Awards have honored the accomplishments of more than 600 scientists, technologists, educators, business leaders, and organizations who are making a difference in Pittsburgh and beyond. Winners are chosen by a committee of peers—both past awardees and industry leaders—who selected the most deserving innovators whose contributions have led to significant economic or societal benefit in western Pennsylvania.
Congratulations to the 2021 Carnegie Science Award recipients!
