The Overton Prize was established by the ISCB in memory of G. Christian Overton in 2000. The annual prize is considered the highest honor for a computational biology scientist in the early to mid-career stage (up to a decade post-degree or equivalent experience), who has already made a significant contribution to the field of computational biology.
