Water and Electrolyte
Homeostasis Section Awards
The Water and Electrolyte Homeostasis Section New Investigator Award
($1,000 plus reimbursement of the advance registration fee) recognizes an
outstanding investigator in the early stages of his/her career. Candidates
should be investigators who have made meritorious contributions to the area
represented by the Water and Electrolyte Homeostasis Section. They should
not be above the rank of Assistant Professor or a comparable position in a
research track at an academic institution or in industry (e.g. Scientist,
Sr. Scientist, Research Investigator, etc.). Any member of the APS in good
standing with a primary affiliation in the Water and Electrolyte Homeostasis
Section may apply or be nominated for the award.
Applications are reviewed by the Awards Committee of the Water and
Electrolyte Homeostasis Section and should include: (1) a curriculum vitae
of the nominee; (2) a brief one-page summary and analysis of the research
contributions of the nominee; (3) a complete list of publications; and (4)
two letters of nomination from members of the APS. Candidates will be judged
on their publications, how their publications relate to the Water and
Electrolyte Homeostasis Section and evidence for independence and promise
(grant funding, peer review activities, etc.). The recipient of the award
will present a short lecture on his/her research during one of the
scientific sessions of the Experimental Biology meeting and will be invited
to publish a manuscript on this presentation in the American Journal of
Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative & Comparative Physiology. Awardees
are recognized at the Water and Electrolyte Homeostasis Luncheon and
Business Meeting at the EB meeting.
All application materials must be
submitted by November 13, 2009.

must be a postdoctoral fellow. Applicants must be first author on an
abstract submitted to an APS Water & Electrolyte Homeostasis Section topic
category (1245-APS through 1252-APS) at the EB meeting. The Section Steering
Award Committee will judge the abstracts and name 3 finalists who agree to
travel to EB and present an oral presentation in a WEH sponsored session.
All finalists will receive $500 and reimbursement of the annual meeting
advance registration fee. Finalists will be judged on the presentation, and
