Description
The AACT Best Publication Award, offered through the Society of Toxicology (SOT), recognizes the significance of research reported in an existing peer-reviewed paper. It is a publication-based recognition award rather than funding for a proposed research project. The current cycle considers papers published in 2025–2026, including work accepted for publication by the stated acceptance cutoff.
The award is associated with the American Association of Chinese in Toxicology (AACT), an SOT Special Interest Group. AACT fosters interaction among professionals of Chinese background in toxicology and related sciences and facilitates toxicology research collaborations among Chinese scientists and organizations in the United States and abroad.
