Description
The SoCal SOT Graduate Student Travel Award supports outstanding graduate student researchers in Southern California who plan to attend the Society of Toxicology (SOT) Annual Meeting. Associated with Southern California SOT, the award helps offset meeting-related travel expenses rather than funding a research project.
The program connects support for meeting attendance with recognition of students’ research achievements and their contributions to the work to be presented. Applications center on research submitted to the Annual Meeting, supported by a statement of achievements and a mentor’s description of the applicant’s contribution. Travel assistance is provided to a winner and runner-up recipients.
