JINR Prizes are awarded for outstanding experimental, methodological and applied research on JINR scientific themes. Research papers should correspond to the world science level and should be completed in the current year. Annually, JINR Directorate appoints a jury to evaluate the submitted papers. The Jury consists of 11 members: representatives of JINR Directorate, leading scientists and a secretary. The decision on awarding the prizes comes into force after the approval by the JINR Scientific Council during the winter session.
