On May 6, the Thomas C. Schelling Award will be presented to Prof. William Nordhaus, the Sterling Professor of Economics at Yale University, chair of the Boston Federal Reserve Bank, and a close collaborator of IIASA. 

One of the past recipients of the Schelling award (2008) was Prof. Howard Raiffa, the first IIASA director and an influential Bayesian decision theorist and a pioneer in the field of decision science.
