FEMS has established an award for young microbiologists, named after the Danish soil microbiologist Hans Laurits Jansen (1898-1977). The award was initiated through a donation by the UK-microbiologist Dr John R. Norris CBE, to many of us known as an Editor of Methods in Microbiology and as former FEMS Treasurer. Dr Jensen was the tutor of Dr Norris and many other soil microbiologists. Dr Jensen was one of the 20th century foremost scientists and teachers in the field of symbiotic and non-symbiotic nitrogen fixation, soil microbiological activity and the taxonomy of Actinomycetes. Dr Jensen was active in England and Australia, as well as in his native Denmark.
