Golden Goose Award 

Highlights and honors examples of scientific studies or research that may have seemed obscure, sounded “funny,” or for which the results were totally unforeseen at the outset, but which ultimately led, often serendipitously, to major breakthroughs that have had significant societal impact. The social sciences aren’t frequently represented so we encourage you to nominate social and behavioral scientists for the award. 

Deadline for 2023 Award: Friday, December 16th, 2022.
