To encourage diligent young scientists, the SGP
has created an awards program which recognizes excellence in
physiology. In addition to our symposium
awards, the SGP also supports both aspiring and independent
young investigators through its Traditional
Cranefield Award and two new SGP
Cranefield Student Awards.
The Paul F. Cranefield
Student Awards
(click here for past Cranefield Student Award Winners)
In 2005 the SGP instituted two new Paul F. Cranefield awards,
one each to be given annually to a post-doctoral fellow and
a graduate student who are the first authors
of manuscripts published in The
Journal of General Physiology. In truly exceptional
cases, undergraduate students will be considered
for a third award. Each award will include a monetary prize
of $2000.
To be considered for such an award, the candidate must have
had a major role in the planning, execution, and analysis of
the results—and contributed significantly to the writing.
Candidates shall write a one-page summary of the work, including
his or her contributions to the research and writing, and email
it to sgp@mbl.edu before
January 15.
Awardees will be invited to the Society’s annual meeting
and symposium, at Woods Hole in September, where they will
present their work in 15-minute presentations.
The deadline for submissions is January 15.
