American Physiological Society Neural Control and Autonomic Regulation Research Recognition Awards
The Neural Control and Autonomic Regulation (NCAR) Research Recognition Awards ($500 plus reimbursement of the advance registration fee) provide travel support to trainees and junior investigators to present meritorious research at the annual Experimental Biology Meeting. Graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and investigators with an academic rank not higher than that of Assistant Professor (or equivalent) working in the area of neural control and autonomic regulation are eligible to apply. Trainees and junior faculty will be judged separately. Applicants must submit a first-authored abstract to any appropriate NCAR topic and make the presentation at the EB meeting. The applicant must be an APS member in good standing with either a primary or secondary affiliation in the NCAR Section. Award criteria will be based on current work reflected in the abstract and overall contributions to the field. Applicants must upload a copy of the first-authored abstract and their curriculum vitae. Awardees must attend the Experimental Biology meeting in order to collect the cash prize and are recognized at the NCAR Reception and Business Meeting.
All application materials must be completed online by November 3, 2010.
