Description
The Society of Toxicology’s Biological Modeling Specialty Section (BMSS) administers this award to recognize graduate students and postdoctoral scholars conducting research in biologically based modeling and simulation. The award emphasizes work with the potential to advance toxicological science and biological modeling.
Research interests include modeling complex biological systems, gaining biological insights through model development and application, validating models, and using mathematical, statistical, or computational approaches to biological modeling. The award is made possible by the Perry J. Gehring Biological Modeling Award Fund of the SOT Endowment and is presented at the BMSS Business Meeting and Reception during the SOT Annual Meeting.
