APS AWARDEE RESPONSIBILITIES AND TAX RULES

Cell and Molecular Physiology Section Awards

The Cell and Molecular Physiology Section New Investigator Award ($1,000 plus reimbursement of the annual meeting advance registration fee) recognizes outstanding investigators in the early stages of their career.  Candidates should be investigators who have made meritorious contributions to the scientific areas represented by the APS Cell & Molecular 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 two regular members of the APS.  Candidates will be judged on their publications, how the publications relate to the APS section to which they have applied, 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 provide a curriculum vitae, 2 nomination letters from APS members, and 3 reprints. All application materials must be submitted online (www.the-aps.org/awardapps) by November 8, 2006. Questions should be directed to John Gay Gargus: jjgargus@uci.edu.

The Cell and Molecular Physiology Student Awards ($300 plus reimbursement of the annual meeting advance registration fee) are available for up to two pre-doctoral candidates, depending on applicant pool. One award will be given for work done while enrolled as a medical or graduate (doctoral or masters) student. A second award is reserved for undergraduate researchers. Applicants must be first author on an abstract submitted to the Experimental Biology meeting. The student or their mentor must be a member in good standing of the APS, with a primary affiliation in the Cell and Molecular Physiology section. Members of the CAMP Steering Committee will review all applications. Winners will be announced, and awards presented, at the Cell and Molecular Section Banquet at the EB meeting. Applicants have the mentor submit a brief (e.g. half page) letter describing why the trainee is deserving of the award. All application materials must be submitted online (www.the-aps.org/awardapps) by November 8, 2006. Questions should be directed to John Gay Gargus: jjgargus@uci.edu.

The Cell and Molecular Physiology Research Recognition Awards ($500 plus reimbursement of the annual meeting advance registration fee) will be given to two successful candidates for work performed while in the first through third postdoctoral year or medical residency. Applicants must be first author on an abstract submitted to the Experimental Biology meeting. The trainee or their mentor  must be a member in good standing of the APS, with a primary affiliation in the Cell and Molecular Physiology section. Members of the CAMP Steering Committee will review all applications. Winners will be announced, and awards presented, at the Cell and Molecular Section Banquet at the EB meeting. Applicants must have the mentor submit a brief (e.g. half page) letter describing why the trainee is deserving of the award.
