Talk:Dickson Prize

Format of Dickson Prize in Science

Hi all, I happened upon this page when updating Emery N. Brown's wiki article to include the Dickson Prize in Science. It appears that the year that has been marked next to each award is the year that the recipient gives their Dickson talk, however this is inconsistent with the Carnegie Mellon site which archives past winners by the year in which the award was given. I think it would be more understandable if the awards were listed for the years given and then we can add info about the date and subject of their talk in the a parenthetical to the right of the winner's name.

I think it would make sense to adjust all of the winners to take on the format described below, but I want to post this first to see if there are any objections.

Best, Ethan
