Our understanding and knowledge of principal structures shaping the life on the planet has undergone massive changes over the past half century. The new fields of study in biosciences including genetics, molecular biology, neurology, etc., have improved our perception of the functions of the living systems. This knowledge has not been restricted to theoretical findings in the world of science, but rather has enormously influenced the welfare and health of the people by providing tangible solutions.

The Mustafa Prize will be awarded to the top work in the fields and applications associated with the biomedical sciences and technologies, which has left a lasting impact on our perception of life and has improved the quality of human life.
