The abstract deadlines for OAsys submission to the COMP Division is April 16th, so we plan to announce winners by this date. Application for these awards is a two-step process. First, an application for the Award must be submitted to the Treasurer of the COMP division for consideration by a panel of experts. The application consists of an extended (2-page) abstract of the poster or presentation along with a letter of support from the research advisor, a two page CV, and a personal statement. Electronic submission via E-mail attachment is preferred. Secondly, an abstract of a poster or oral presentation in the COMP program must be submitted through the ACS OASYS system for online submissions prior to the deadline for the meeting at which the awards will be presented (Philadelphia, in this case). Awardees are chosen on the basis of the quality and significance of the research to be presented, as well as the strength of the supporting letter and other materials. All graduate students are encouraged to submit applications for the Awards. Students from the same research group are encouraged to apply. Students from research groups that have won awards at previous ACS meetings are also encouraged to submit applications. Awards will be given only to those individuals making presentations, and not to co-authors. For questions, contact: Prof. Curt M. Breneman; Treasurer, ACS COMP Division; RPI Department of Chemistry; 110 8th St.; Troy, NY 12180 To see photos and details of previous winners, see: http://membership.acs.org/C/COMP/CCG/ccg.html#winners
