Description
The MRC/SOT Kenneth P. DuBois Award is a career recognition award offered by the Midwest Regional Chapter of the Society of Toxicology. It honors an outstanding Midwest toxicologist whose career demonstrates distinguished professional experience and sustained, high-level activity in toxicology. It recognizes accomplishments over an extended career rather than funding a proposed research project, scientific method, or program of work.
The nomination highlights the candidate’s contributions through publications, oral and poster presentations, honors, awards, and other recognitions. Candidates must remain active in toxicology and have spent most of their careers in the Midwest. The recipient is invited to the chapter’s annual spring meeting, where the award is presented.
