EPS HEPP Outreach Prize has been awarded to the coordinators of the International Masterclasses and the IPPOG representative from the ATLAS Experiment

The 2021 Outreach Prize of the High Energy and Particle Physics Division of the EPS is awarded to Uta Bilow and Kenneth Cecire for the long-term coordination and major expansion of the International Particle Physics Master Classes to include a range of modern methods and exercises, and connecting scientists from all the major LHC and Fermilab experiments to school pupils across the world; and to Sascha Mehlhase for the design and creation of the ATLAS detector and other interlocking-brick models, creating an international outreach program that reaches to an unusually young audience.

All prizes will be awarded in a ceremony on July 26, 2021 during the virtual EPS-HEP 2021 conference: https://www.eps-hep2021.eu/
