The APS Translational Research Award recognizes trainees at both the pre-doctoral and postdoctoral educational levels whose area of experimental research is translatable to industry applications: treatment development or improvement; diagnosis; mechanism of action; and health and wellness. These awards are presented at the APS annual meeting. The awardee must attend the American Physiology Summit. Applicants must be a U.S. graduate student or equivalent holding a bachelor's degree and enrolled in subsequent training or completion of a program leading to a doctorate degree. The applicant's sponsor must be a regular APS member in good standing at the time of application. Membership is not required for applicants. A copy of the first author abstract submitted to the American Physiology Summit meeting is required. Please visit the award's website or contact the American Physiological Society for more information.
