Overview
The DDTSS Student Abstract Competition, hosted by the Society of Toxicology, invites graduate students to submit abstracts for the Annual Meeting. Participants can win prizes of $1,000, $400, and $150 for the top three submissions. While SOT membership is encouraged, it is not mandatory. This competition fosters the importance of drug discovery toxicology and supports students in showcasing their research to a broader audience.
SOT operates under four guiding principles:
- Serving the needs of the scientific discipline and our members to enhance human, animal, and environmental health.
- Life-long learning and intellectual scientific stimulation.
- Diversity of representation in all activities of the Society.
- Integrity.
