Join us in celebrating and honoring the 2010 Award Recipients. We are pleased to announce that 23 Endowment Funds are available to provide awards at the 2010 SOT Annual Meeting in Salt Lake City. Most of the awards are selected by Specialty Sections or Special Interest Groups based on the scientific merit of submitted abstracts. Typically, the awards will be presented at the Annual Meeting Reception for the Specialty Section or Special Interest Groups. Check the 2010 Annual Meeting Program for dates, times, and locations of these receptions. We encourage you to support the award process by attending the receptions and to contribute to the SOT Endowment Fund of your choice to help sponsor future awards! Make a donation to your favorite interests now OR help create a new award to assist in areas not yet addressed. Two new funds are described on page 8 of this newsletter. Several funds are still progressing toward the $25,000 level needed to establish a fund in perpetuity, including the Angelo Furgiuele Young Investigator Award, Metals Specialty Section Award Fund, Regulatory and Safety Evaluation Award Fund, and Robert G. Thurman Student Travel Award Fund. The Donor Form and descriptions of the awards can be found in the Endowment Fund section of the SOT Web site.
