The annual Caroline tum Suden/Frances A. Hellebrandt Professional

To be considered for the award, the candidate must be the first author of an

The candidate must submit the following:

goals; his/her research goals, role in the research described in the
abstract, and reasons why he/she is deserving of the award. The letter

quantitative and statistical comparisons, when appropriate; and a clearly
stated conclusion, including the significance of the results to the field.
Candidates may submit ONE abstract for consideration.
