  HIGHLIGHTS
NRS Carl Klason and Young Rheologist Awards 2025
Both NRS Awards were handed over at the joint Nordic Rheology Conference and DRG Symposium 2025.

The Carl Klason Rheology Award was given to Prof. Mats Stading from RISE and Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden. His award lecture was entitled From Fluid to Solid Research and contained a thorough overview of Mats' outstanding work he performed throughout his career.

The NRS Young Rheologist Award was given to Julie Frost Dahl, who conducted her PhD research Measure, Understand, and Predict Structure Formation in Plant-Based Anisotropic Foods at Aarhus University in Denmark.

Mats and Julie were both present at the conference to receive their awards. Congratulations to both of you!
