SRI Travel Awards - New in 2018!

The SRI Travel Awards were established in 2018 to support attendance of in training investigators at the Annual Meeting and recognize trainees for the high quality of their abstracts. A total of 50 awards were given to intercontinental ($1,000) and continental (from the same continent as the location of the Annual Meeting) in training investigators ($500). The awardees were recognized at the Annual Meeting by having their names placed both on a sign, as well as a slide projected throughout the meeting.

2018 SRI/Pfizer President's Presenter Award Winners

The Pfizer (formerly Wyeth) President’s Presenter Award was established in 1996 to recognize the 25 most meritorious abstracts (either poster or oral presentation) submitted by individuals still in training.

Fellows and those in both pre and post-doctoral training are eligible to receive the award, which has been generously funded by Pfizer. The 25 awardees will receive a certificate, a check, and they and their training directors will be honored at a luncheon at the SRI annual meeting. The society has always sought a means by which to encourage young investigators to present their research at our meeting. We anticipate the Pfizer President’s Presenter’s Award will result in the submission of more and better abstracts by the very people who need encouragement to consider a research career.
