The Society of Toxicology’s Biotechnology Specialty Section (BTSS) Postdoctoral Award in Biotechnology recognizes a postdoctoral researcher whose work contributes to the field of biotechnology. Also described as the Battelle Postdoctoral Award in Biotechnology, it honors research demonstrated through a poster or oral presentation at the SOT Annual Meeting rather than supporting a proposed research project.
The award combines a monetary prize with a plaque of recognition. Members of the awards committee determine the recipient based on the research contribution documented through the meeting presentation and nomination materials. The winner receives the award at the BTSS reception during the SOT Annual Meeting.
