Description
The NorCal SOT Graduate Student Achievement Award is offered by the Society of Toxicology’s Northern California Regional Chapter. It recognizes graduate student scientific achievement through merit-based cash awards, with the quality, impact, and novelty of the science serving as the central selection criteria.
The award focuses on research represented in an abstract accepted for presentation at the SOT Annual Meeting. It is recognition of scientific work rather than a separately described project-funding program. Applicants must remain enrolled in a graduate degree program at the time of the annual meeting and submit their accepted abstract with a brief letter of support from their major advisor.
