The note continued, "The purpose of the EliteForsk prizes is to recognize and create awareness of the best research in Denmark. This year's five EliteForsk award recipients received DKK 1.2 million, of which DKK 200,000 is given as a personal honorary award, and DKK 1 million goes to research activities. The award recipients were Professor Anne Ladegaard Skov, Professor Anton Pottegård, Professor Felix Riede, Professor Naja Hulvej Rod and Professor Sune Lehmann."
