Reminder—SOT Awards Deadline: October 9
Do you know a colleague who deserves special recognition for his or her work? Please take this opportunity to nominate him or her for an SOT Award. The on-line award nominating process only takes a few minutes to complete. SOT presents many prestigious awards to both members and non-members. At least a few of these awards require that the nominee or applicant submit an abstract for the meeting. All abstracts are to be submitted on-line on October 3 by 11:59 PM EDT. Criteria for individual awards and the application details are available on the SOT Web site. Recipients will be recognized at the special Awards Ceremony at the Annual Meeting in Salt Lake City in March 2010, and many awards provide plaques and stipends. Award recipients are listed in the annual Membership Directory and also on the SOT Web site. Some SOT awards, such as the Merit Award, honor distinguished achievements throughout an entire career. Other awards, such as the Leading Edge in Basic Science Award, recognize contributions in a specific area. Don’t hesitate to contact SOT Headquarters if you have any questions about any award.
Please note that most SOT student awards require that the applicant is a student member or has completed an application for membership, so research mentors should encourage students to apply immediately.
