The Postdoctoral Assembly (PDA) of the Society of Toxicology is pleased to announce the Best Postdoctoral Publication Awards. These awards were created to recognize talented postdoctoral researchers who have recently published exceptional papers in the field of toxicology. Applications are reviewed by the Postdoctoral Assembly Board and a committee containing appropriate scientific expertise. The review process follows NIH conflict of interest policy, confidentiality and nondisclosure policies. Three awards, each consisting of a plaque and a $100 cash award, are presented at the Postdoctoral Assembly Luncheon during the SOT Annual Meeting.
