Deadline January 15

The ASN Award for Distinguished Achievement in the Conceptual Unification of the Biological Sciences, established in 1991, is given annually and honors a senior but still active investigator who is making fundamental contributions to the Society's goals, namely, promoting the conceptual unification of the biological sciences. The award includes an honorarium of $1,000.

The ASN seeks nominations (including self-nominations) for the Award for Distinguished Achievement in the Conceptual Unification of the Biological Sciences. Nominations are due by 15 January and should consist of a brief statement of suitability for the award, a curriculum vitae, and names and email addresses of three current and/or former trainees of the nominee. To nominate yourself or others please use this Google form; you can also contact President-elect Jeff Conner with questions or nominations.

We are committed to increasing the diversity of our awardees. Information about these and other ASN awards is here. The names of former recipients can be found here.
