Chairpersons of MSU Biological Science Departments are invited to nominate candidates for the Penner assistantship. Applications are due Spring Semester. Check with Estrella Starn for the specific deadline date.

The nomination will consist of a cover sheet that collects general information on the nominee and queries whether the nominee is eligible for one or both awards. In addition, please provide the following for each candidate:

• curriculum vitae (which includes a local mailing address and PID)
• statement of past achievements
• current progress and future interests
• two or more letters of recommendation, at least one of which attests to the nominee's teaching and service.

Please forward your nominations electronically (using the button at the top of the page), by the due date.

The recipients of these awards should be advanced students who have shown a distinguished record of accomplishment at MSU. 

The quality of current and past recipients has been excellent, consistent with the aim of making this a particularly distinctive and prestigious award. 

The recipients of the Penner award will be the highest ranked nominees whose area of research is Hematology, Thrombosis, or Inflammation.
