NEW!!! Travel Awards Available for Postdoctoral Trainees Attending the 
Annual Meeting

announce a new program to support postdoc travel to the SFN Annual Meeting 
in Orlando, FL.  The Burroughs Wellcome Fund will provide $1,250 in travel 
expenses to honor outstanding postdoctoral trainees nominated by their 
local chapters.  Each chapter may submit a single nomination to the SFN 
Chapters Committee. The nominee must be first author on an abstract to be 
presented at the Annual Meeting.  The Chapters Committee will make the 
final selection for awards based on the scientific merit of abstracts and 
letters of recommendation from the postdoc's mentor and nominating 
committees of the local chapters.  Deadline for nominations is Monday, July

by NSP.  Oour nominee will then be responsible for assembling and 
submitting the application to SFN, which looks quite easy.  Note that a 
letter from advisor is required, so please plan ahead.
