Peebles
Award for Graduate Student
Research in Adhesion Science
(Sponsored by Henkel)
The first type of
student award is the Peebles Award for Graduate Student Research
in Adhesion Science. Several of these are given each year. The
selection of awardees is based on abstracts submitted as
contributions to the Annual Meeting . These awardees will receive
partial support to attend the meeting, and will present their
paper at an oral symposium with the other award winners.
The amount of support will not exceed the lesser of US $750 or
one-half of the student’s expenses for attending the meeting. In
addition to this support, registration fees for the short course
and the meeting will be waived for the Peebles Award winners. The
deadline for submitting short abstracts is the same as that of the
general meeting (August 15 in 2008), and long abstracts are due
one month sooner than the general deadline. For submission
details, please download the
STUDENT AWARD COMPETITION file.
