Awards are given to the Best Student Platform Presentation and Best Student Poster Presentation at SETAC North America Annual Meetings. In order to qualify for consideration, the first author of the presentation must be a current SETAC Student Member. The results must be of research conducted by the author as a student, while still a student.
The Student Presentations Subcommittee of the SETAC North America Awards and Fellowships Committee and additional reviewers will judge the poster and platform papers. For each category, there will be a first, second and third place Best Student Paper for Ph.D., Masters, and Undergraduate. The awards will be based upon the numerical results of the reviews. As a result of the sponsorship of this award, funds are available for cash awards that will be mailed out after the annual meeting.
The Abstract Transmittal Form for the Annual Meeting provides directions for the author to indicate his or her desire to participate in this competition.
The SETAC Office, Pensacola, Florida, USA, will notify recipients of these awards after the SETAC North America Annual Meeting. For additional information, you may contact SETAC at setac@setac.org.
