Young Investigator Awards

In order to promote growth and achievement amongst young investigators in the field of cancer biologics, in 2007 iSBTc began offering "Young Investigator Awards" to recognize excellence in iSBTc Annual Meeting oral abstract and poster presentations.

For the iSBTc Presidential Travel Awards, four abstracts submitted in any category and authored by young investigators were selected for oral presentation during the Presidential Session of the iSBTc Annual Meeting. Those presenting authors not selected for the iSBTc Presidential Award will receive an iSBTc Presidential Travel Award in recognition of their achievement.

iSBTc Travel Awards are given to six young investigators presenting posters at the iSBTc 22nd Annual Meeting. Judging of the posters will be done by a committee of iSBTc leadership and Annual Meeting organizers.
