FASEB Excellence in Science Award
The Excellence in Science Award, sponsored by
Eli Lilly and Company, is given in recognition of outstanding achievement by women in biological science. Recipients are women whose career achievements have contributed significantly to further our understanding of a particular discipline by excellence in research.
2012 Award - Call for Nominations
