Alfred R. Bader Award for Student Innovation

We are pleased to invite Georgia Tech Chemistry and Biochemistry students to participate in the 2014 Aldrich Alfred R. Bader Award for Student Innovation. This was formerly known as the Graduate Student Innovation Awards, or GSIA program; however, as part of Alfred Bader's 90th birthday celebration, we have rechristened the program to honor the founder of Aldrich.  We are aiming to host the awards presentation and visit in mid-August.

As you might remember from previous years, we are seeking applicants who have completed at least 3 full years of graduate work in the field of synthetic chemistry or chemical biology.  The applicants must be able to attend and make a presentation on her/his graduate research at the Award Symposium in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, which is tentatively scheduled for August 21, 2014.  We are not restricting the number of applicants from any one institution, but we are limiting entries to the first 200 submissions, so please make sure all qualifying candidates from your department are notified.

I have attached a two-sided flyer which outlines this year’s program and contains the official entry form on the back.  Also attached is the template for students to submit their research summaries.  I can provide the official rules for the Alfred Bader Award program to anyone on request.

Please feel free to contact me directly if there are any questions or concerns. Thank you for your time, and best of luck to your students!

Sincerely,

-Mark
