The Graduate Student Honoraria program, administered by the American Society of Mammalogists (ASM), annually recognizes four graduate students (master’s or doctoral) for exceptional research in mammalogy. Each awardee receives a $2,000 honorarium to help defray costs of attending the ASM Annual Meeting, where recipients are required to present their research in the opening Plenary Session. The four named awards are the Anna M. Jackson, A. Brazier Howell, Elmer C. Birney, and Annie M. Alexander Awards (the latter for master’s students only). The program aims to foster engagement and professional development among emerging leaders in mammalogy.
