h have been published in the scientific journal "Nature".

Merle Katharina Richter, University of Bayreuth
For her dissertation Merle Katharina Richter developed a combined procedure which enabled her to obtain fossil DNA from soil. In this work the young geologist was able to prove the significance of cattle and boars in the diet of pre-Columbian Indians.

The prize is named after geology student Bernd Rendel, who died at an early age. The prize is funded by proceeds from the Bernd Rendel Foundation, which is administered by the Donors Association for the Promotion of Science and Humanities.

The prize ceremony was held during the 8th Crafoord Symposium on 25 February 2005 at the University of Tbingen.
