The EPS Liquid Matter Prize 2014 is to be awarded to Professor Robert Evans

Professor Robert Evans of the University of Bristol, United Kingdom, will receive the prize "for seminal works applying density functional theory to the statistical mechanics of liquid matter, including highly original and lasting contributions to understanding interfaces and phenomena such as criticality, wetting, capillarity, and phase transitions of simple and complex fluids". The prize will be presented at the 9th EPS Liquid Matter Conference, to be held 21-25 July 2014 in Lisbon, Portugal.  Previous prize winners were J.-P. Hansen (2005), H.N.W. Lekkerkerker and P.N. Pusey (2008), and D. Chandler (2011).
