During the conference the newly founded EPS young scientist prize in atomic, molecular and optical physics was awarded. The first recipient was Christian Brand (University of Vienna) for his work on an atomically thin matter-wave beam splitter. Poster awards for the best poster of each poster session went to Anne Müller, Christian Ozga, Andreas Hans (all Kassel), Emma Anderson (Stockholm), Stefan Donsa (Vienna).The whole set of information on ECAMP12 can be found at http://www.ecamp.uni-frankfurt.de/index.htm.
