The Society of Toxicology’s ATA Distinguished Postdoctoral Research Award recognizes outstanding scientific work that advances understanding of toxicology. It honors demonstrated contributions to the toxicological sciences that embody the ATA-SIG mission, rather than funding a proposed research project. The selected postdoctoral fellow receives a certificate and a monetary prize in recognition of that work.
The award is directed to applicants of Arab origin attending a university or college, including postdoctoral fellows and postdoctoral junior tenure-track faculty members. Applicants must belong to both SOT and ATA, and their application must include an SOT-accepted abstract, a current curriculum vitae, and recommendations supporting their research achievements.
