Endocrinology and Metabolism Section Awards
The Endocrinology and Metabolism 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 Endocrinology & Metabolism 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 Endocrinology &
Metabolism 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.
Also, the recipient is expected to submit a brief review article in her/his
area of research interest to the American Journal of
Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism for publication within one year
of receiving the award. The candidate must be an APS member in good standing
with a primary affiliation in the Endocrinology and Metabolism Section.
Candidates must upload: curriculum vitae, 2 nomination letters from
APS members, and 3 reprints. Awardees are recognized at the Endocrinology &
Metabolism Section Business Meeting and Awards Reception at EB 2010.
All application materials must be
completed online by November 12, 2009.
