San Diego, CA
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 submit an abstract by the
November 7, 2007 deadline and to attend EB and make an oral or poster
presentation. The candidate must be an APS member in good standing with a
primary affiliation in the Cell and Molecular Physiology section. Winner
will be announced, and award presented, at the Cell and Molecular Section
Banquet at the EB meeting. Candidates must provide a curriculum vitae, 2
nomination letters from APS members, and 3 reprints. All supporting
application materials must be submitted online (www.the-aps.org/awardapps)
by January 15, 2008. Questions should be directed to J. Jay Gargus:
jjgargus@uci.edu.
The Cell and Molecular
Physiology Student Awards ($300 plus reimbursement of the annual meeting
advance registration fee and CAMPS banquet) are available for up to two
pre-doctoral candidates, allotment depending on applicant pool. One award
will be given for work done while enrolled as a medical or graduate
(doctoral or masters) student. An undergraduate researcher is given priority
for the second award. Applicants must be first author on an abstract
submitted by the November 7, 2007 deadline to the Experimental Biology
meeting. The student or their direct faculty 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 provide a
curriculum vitae, and have the mentor submit a brief (e.g. half page) letter
describing why the trainee is deserving of the award. All supporting
application materials must be submitted online (www.the-aps.org/awardapps)
by January 15, 2008. Questions should be directed to J. Jay Gargus:

The Cell and Molecular
Physiology Research Recognition Awards ($500 plus reimbursement of the
annual meeting advance registration fee and CAMPS banquet) 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 by the November 7, 2007 deadline to the
Experimental Biology meeting. The trainee or their direct faculty
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 provide a curriculum vitae and have the
mentor submit a brief (e.g. half page) letter describing why the trainee is
