Young Investigators
Young Investigator Awards
Besides the normal student poster prizes, from one to four Lorne Proteins Young Investigator Awards will be presented at each conference. Awardees will receive a $500 prize and have the opportunity to make an oral presentation at the conference.
To be eligible, the applicant must have been awarded his or her PhD no earlier than five years ago (i.e. not before 2007). Exceptions to this, where there have been career breaks for family responsibilities, will be considered by the committee.
In addition to submitting an abstract, applicants must provide a one page CV summary of their track record in pdf format and email this to Jackie Wilce with “cc” to Danielle White by Friday 4th November.
Young Investigator Mixer
Lorne Proteins is a great way to meet your fellow scientists from different institutions around Australia! To help our Early Career Scientists form new friendships and collaborations during the conference, we provided a pizza dinner immediately before the presentation of the Young Investigator Awards on Tuesday night from 6-7.45 pm at Mantra Erskine Resort. Entry to the event was FREE however it was limited to the first 50 people to register. To be eligible for this event you needed to have less than 5 years experience (post-PhD or equivalent). Please note this is not a student event.
