Barbara A. Horwitz and John M. Horowitz Undergraduate Research Awards

Description

The Barbara A. Horwitz and John M. Horowitz Undergraduate Research Awards are presented annually to undergraduate students who are presenting their research at the American Physiology Summit meeting. There are two types of Horwitz/Horowitz Undergraduate Research Awards presented annually: the Outstanding Undergraduate Abstract Awards and the Excellence in Undergraduate Research Awards. The highest ranking Excellence in Undergraduate Research Award awardee receives an additional $250. Applicants must be enrolled as an undergraduate student at the time of the abstract submission to the American Physiology Summit. The applicant must be the first author on a submitted abstract to an APS topic category for the American Physiology Summit and must be working with an APS member in good standing. Applicants will only be eligible for the Excellence in Undergraduate Research Award if they are selected to receive an Outstanding Undergraduate Abstract Award. A copy of the abstract, a personal statement, and one letter of recommendation from the research advisor that indicates the applicant played a significant role in the research (and is deserving of first-authorship), has an understanding of the significance of the research and has some interest in a biomedical and/or physiology-related career must be submitted. Please visit the award's website for more information.
