In light of the shutdown of the US federal government, SOT extended the abstract submission deadline to October 16 to allow additional time for the submission of abstracts for the 2014 SOT Annual Meeting. In addition, SOT has extended the SOT awards deadline for the 2014 Annual Meeting from the original extended date of October 16, 2013, to October 23, 2013.
The SOT Awards Committee hopes that the extension will provide you with adequate time to submit your award applications and/or nominations for 2014 SOT Awards, sponsored awards, and Graduate Student Travel Awards.* Applicants for the Graduate Student Travel Awards should have submitted an abstract by the extended deadline of October 16 to receive an abstract Control ID number that they will need to complete their applications for Graduate Student Travel Awards to the 2014 SOT Annual Meeting.
Information about submitting award applications or nominations is available on the Awards and Fellowships section of the SOT website. We encourage you to share this information with your colleagues.
We look forward to welcoming you to Phoenix, Arizona, for the 2014 SOT Annual Meeting that will take place March 23–27, 2014.
* Because the Undergraduate Education Program Awards do not require an abstract submission, the deadline remains October 9.
