2019 Young Investigator Award Nominations Are Due on February 8th

VSS is pleased to announce that nominations are now being accepted for the 2019 Elsevier/VSS Young Investigator Award. The prize, sponsored by Vision Research, is awarded each year to an early-career vision scientist who has made outstanding contributions to vision science. The award, which includes an honorarium, will be presented at the 2019 VSS Meeting in St. Pete Beach. The awardee will be asked to give a brief presentation of her/his work and will be required to write a review to be published in Vision Research.

Eligibility

A nominee must be an active VSS member, attending at least two of the last five VSS meetings. Nominees may have no more than 10 years of active research experience since earning their terminal degree, allowing for the exclusion of times that typically “stop the clock” in academic tenure track positions. For the upcoming 2019 award, if there was no break in active research/teaching, the degree must have been awarded in or after 2009. If still eligible, nominees from previous years can be re-nominated.

Nomination Process

Nominations may be made by any current regular member of the Vision Sciences Society, as well as those who hold emeritus status.

The nomination must include the following:

1.  A nomination letter, outlining in detail the scientific contributions of the nominee, discussing clear indicators of exceptional impact on the field of vision science. The nomination letter can be co-signed.

2.  The nomination letter must include a statement indicating whether or not life circumstances extend the period of eligibility for this award. This statement must be included regardless of the number of years that have elapsed since the nominee earned the terminal degree.

3.  A curriculum vita, including an up-to-date publication list.

4.  One letter of support signed by at least one regular or emeritus VSS member.

Nominations will be reviewed by an Award Committee consisting of a representative of the VSS Board of Directors and five established scientists selected from VSS membership. Members of the Award Committee and of the VSS Board of Directors cannot serve as nominators or provide letters of support.

Nominations for the 2019 Young Investigator Award should be submitted by email to  <mailto:VSS at visionsciences.org> Shauney Wilson. 

The deadline for submitting nominations is February 8, 2019.
