Rumelhart Prize
The David E. Rumelhart Prize for Contributions to the Theoretical Foundations of Human Cognition was founded in 2001 in honor of the cognitive scientist David Rumelhart to introduce the equivalent of a Nobel prize for cognitive science. The annual award is presented at the Cognitive Science Society meeting, where the recipient gives a lecture and receives a check for $100,000. At the conclusion of the ceremony, the next year's award winner is announced. The award is funded by the Robert J. Glushko and Pamela Samuelson Foundation.
The Rumelhart Prize committee is independent of the Cognitive Science Society. However, the society provides a large and interested audience for the awards.

gollark: Well, it can't become C without becoming B, but it can become B, so it can become C.
gollark: Oh, I see.
gollark: You just said "No they could turn into a thing that could turn into a person".
gollark: It's transitive, though: if thing A can become thing B, and thing B can become thing C, then thing A can indirectly become thing C.
gollark: * turn into a person
