Description
The Society of Toxicology’s Carcinogenesis Specialty Section (CSS) offers this award to recognize outstanding research in carcinogenesis by postdoctoral researchers and young investigators. Applicants compete for a best-abstract distinction by submitting their SOT research abstract, accompanied by a current curriculum vitae and an advisor’s recommendation.
This is an abstract-based recognition award rather than funding for a new project or a defined course of research. One recipient receives a cash award and a plaque, with the award announced during the CSS meeting at the SOT Annual Meeting. The award is associated with the Dharm V. Singh Carcinogenesis Award Fund.
