Comparative and Evolutionary Physiology Awards
The Comparative and Evolutionary Physiology Section
New Investigator Award ($1,000 plus reimbursement of the advance
registration fee) recognizes an outstanding investigator in the early stages
of his/her career. Candidates should be investigators who have made
meritorious contributions to the area represented by the Comparative and
Evolutionary Physiology Section. They should not be above the rank of
Assistant Professor or a comparable position in a research track at an
academic institution or in industry (e.g. Scientist, Sr. Scientist, Research
Investigator, etc.). They should receive nominations from at least one
regular members of the APS. Candidates will be judged on their
publications, how the publications relate to the Comparative and
Evolutionary Physiology Section and evidence for independence and promise
(grant funding, peer review activities, etc.). Although this is not an
abstract-based award, awardees are expected to attend EB and make an oral or
poster presentation. The candidate must be an APS member in good standing.
Candidates must upload: a curriculum vitae, at least one nomination letter
from an APS member, and 3 reprints. Awardees are
recognized at the Comparative and Evolutionary Physiology Section Business
Luncheon at EB 2006. All application materials must be completed online by
October 31, 2005 at:

Hicks email address:

meritorious research by young investigators who participate in the
Experimental Biology meeting. Candidates must have completed their Ph.D.
within the past 10 years, be a member of APS, and must present a talk or
