Awards
The organizers will deputize judges who will evaluate the platform and poster presentations of undergraduate students, graduate students, and postdoctoral fellows (faculty and staff are not eligible for awards). The best presenters in each category will receive a monetary award. To qualify for these awards, postdoctoral fellows and graduate students must be SDB members in good standing at the time they submit their abstract to the regional meeting.

Grand Prize : One graduate student and one postdoctoral fellow will receive $1000 to defray travel and meeting expenses associated with presenting their work at the SDB 71st Annual Meeting , in Montreal, Canada, July 19-23, 2012. Grand prize winners should also submit their abstracts to the national meeting by March 15, 2012. Organizers of the national meeting will automatically consider the postdoctoral winner's abstract for one of the eight 15-minute slots at the special Postdoctoral Symposium.
