($1000 honorarium, reimbursement for up to $2000 in travel expenses, plus a
complimentary ticket to the Renal Dinner) recognizes a world-renown,
distinguished scientist who has made major contributions to understanding
physiological processes through state-of-the-art research, and who is an
engaging speaker. The candidate’s area(s) of research expertise need not be
in renal physiology, but should be of interest to Renal Section members. The
candidate need not be an APS member or a US citizen. In addition to
delivering the Carl W. Gottschalk Distinguished Lecture, the recipient will
participate in the Renal Section’s Posters and Professors Reception
and will be recognized at the Renal Dinner held during EB 2010. Nominators
must upload a 1 page summary of the candidate's contributions relevant to
renal physiology. The letter must include the nominator's name, the proposed
candidate’s name, candidate's email address, and candidate's institution.

recognizes an outstanding investigator in the early stages of his/her
career. Candidates should be investigators who have made meritorious
contributions to the areas of research represented by the Renal Section.

position in a research track at an academic institution or in industry (e.g.
Scientist, Sr. Scientist, Research Investigator, etc.). They should receive
nominations from at least two regular members of the APS. Candidates will be
judged on their publications, how the publications relate to the Renal
Section and evidence for independence and promise (grant funding, peer
review activities, etc.). Although this is not an abstract-based award,
