Daniel Dominguez, professor of physics at Instituto Balseiro in Bariloche, Argentina, has been awarded the 1999 ICTP Prize. Dominguez has been honoured for his studies of vortex dynamics in superconducting materials and Josephson junction arrays. Dominguez was a post doc at ICTP from 1992 to 1994 and is now an ICTP associate. The 1999 ICTP Prize is named in honour of Stig Lundqvist, a long-time supporter of the ICTP who helped launch ICTP's condensed matter activities in the 1970s and chaired the Centre's Scientific Council from 1983 to 1992. The award ceremony will take place in the summer 2000.
