The Prix Christian Benoît-Christian Benoît Award and the Association Christian Benoît (ACB) were initiated to honor the memory of Christian Benoît. The Award is intended to be given to a young researcher whose work shows great promise and will be given to a doctoral graduate whose PhD and further scientific work is in the Speech Communication domain. The award provides financial support for the development of a multi-media product promoting his/her work. Preference will be given to scientists whose thesis was awarded within the five years prior to the application deadline.
