To be considered a nominating letter must be received from the student's faculty advisor that describes the research accomplished and its significance. Please, send your nominations to the Graduate Committee (c/o Roger Wartell (roger.wartell@biology.gatech.edu). The $250 award will be announced and presented at the SoB Holliday party.
