MSS invites current graduate students or postdoctoral trainees planning to attend the SOT Annual Meeting to compete for the Graduate Student/Postdoctoral Research Awards. Applicants should submit a copy of the submitted abstract to the SOT annual meeting; a letter from the trainee's advisor outlining the trainee's role in the research; and a preliminary copy of the applicant's presentation either as a poster or oral presentation. Work must be related to the field of metals toxicology. The trainee should be planning to attend the SOT Annual Meeting and encouraged to attend the MSS reception to receive their award and share their work. Trainees should be members of SOT or show evidence of application for SOT membership. Trainees are encouraged to join MSS. Mentors who are not SOT members or MSS members are also encouraged to join. MSS student awards will not be given to a trainee receiving another SOT award for the same abstract. First place winners can compete in subsequent years to win a second or third place award; however, the trainee will not be awarded a first-place award twice within their graduate or postdoctoral program. Please visit the award's website or contact the Society of Toxicology for more information.
