Description
The Society of Toxicology’s Dermal Toxicology Specialty Section (DTSS) requests nominations for its annual Paper of the Year Award, recognizing an exceptional recent publication in skin toxicology and pharmacology. The award honors the author or authors of a peer-reviewed paper that contributes significantly to research in these fields. It recognizes published scientific work rather than supporting a proposed research project.
The award combines a certificate and monetary honorarium with an opportunity to share the recognized research with DTSS members. The recipient presents the work at the section’s annual meeting, held during the Society of Toxicology Annual Meeting. In exceptional circumstances, a recipient unable to attend may instead present through a DTSS-organized webinar.
