Awards

Darbaker Prize from the Botanical Society of America

The Botanical Society of America accepts nominations for the Darbaker Prize in Phycology. This award is presented for meritorious work in the study of microscopic algae, based on papers published by the nominee during the previous two full calendar years (2005-2006). The award is limited to residents of North America, and only papers published in the English language are considered.  Nominations for the 2007 award should include a list of all of the nominee's work to be considered for the period, and a statement of the nominee's merits addressed to the committee. 

Nominations for the Darbaker Award should be sent by April 30 to the Botanical Society of America.
