Vincent Hendricks, Professor of Formal Philosophy at Roskilde University, Denmark and the Editor of Synthese, has received the "Elite Research Prize" from the Danish Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation and the Crown Princess of Denmark.  The prize (valued roughly at US $200,000) is Denmark’s largest and most prestigious prize, awarded annually to "the most outstanding national researcher who in an extraordinary way contributes to strengthening Danish research internationally."  There will be more information here later today.  There is more about Professor Hendricks’s research here.
