César de la Fuente Núñez, 2021 FPdGi Scientific Research Award

The winner was chosen for his leadership and outstanding scientific work in the field of computational biology, which unites extraordinary scientific productivity with the capacity to transfer the technology developed.
Rubén Darío Costa Riquelme, 2020 FPdGi Scientific Research Award

The winner was chosen for the originality of his research in the field of LEDs with biological components, designed to reduce environmental impact.
Xavier Ros Oton, 2019 FPdGi Scientific Research Award

The winner was chosen for being “one of the most brilliant mathematicians with the greatest global impact”
Guillermo Mínguez, Princess of Girona Foundation Scientific Research Award ex aequo

Recognised for his work designing hybrid molecular sieves that allow tailored nanostructured materials to be synthesised. The jury highlighted the impact of his work on magnetic metallic organic frameworks (MOF), from his fundamental study to its application in sensors and catalysis. The new porous materials developed will have a huge impact in fields such as the environment and energy.
María Escudero Escribano, 2018 Princess of Girona Foundation Scientific Research Award ex aequo

Recognised for her work developing electrochemical catalysts based on metal nanoparticles that could replace noble metals to reduce costs and increase efficiency in processes for obtaining clean energy. The jury highlighted the scientific, technological, energy-generation and social impact of her work, which will contribute towards slowing climate change
Héctor Gómez Díaz, 2017 Princess of Girona Foundation Scientific Research Award

For his contribution to the development of mathematical modelling and algorithms for numerical simulation in computational engineering that can be applied to provide personalised predictions of prostate cancer growth.
Sílvia Osuna Oliveras, 2016 FPdGi Scientific Research Award

The winner has been chosen for opening up a new path to reducing the cost of drugs through computational chemistry
Samuel Sánchez Ordóñez, 2015 FPdGi Scientific Research Award

The winner was chosen for his international scientific career which reflects his leadership in the field of nanotechnology
Alberto Enciso Carrasco, 2014 FPdGi Scientific Research Award
