Description:
This session will honor graduate students whose research achievements, in the broad area of bionanotechnology, demonstrate a high level of excellence. Finalists will be selected from the abstract submissions to present their work in this award session. At the end of the session, a panel of judges will determine 1st-3rd place. The details for participation in the session are included below. To be eligible for the award, the following criteria must be met: (1) Abstract submitted to one of the area 22b-Bionanotechnology sessions (see list below). (2) Same abstract from (1) also submitted to this session. The title must be edited to begin with ‘Award Submission: ’. (3) The student that is applying for the award must be the 1st author on the presentation abstract. (4) The applicant must have at least one previously published peer-reviewed original research article as the first author. (5) By May 17, 2013, an application packet must be submitted via e-mail to Prof. Julie Champion (julie.champion@chbe.gatech.edu), and include the following information: a. Curriculum Vitae b. 2 letters of recommendation (1 from the PhD advisor). The letters should be e-mailed directly by the faculty that write the recommendations (pdf preferred). c. 1 referred research publication (published or in press) where the presenter is the 1st author (pdf). Do not submit Reviews, or research manuscripts that have been submitted or are in preparation. Bionano Sessions: 22B01, 22B02, 22B03, 22B04, 22B05, 22B06, 22B07, 22B08, 22B09, 22B10
