Student awards
Graduate Student Mayr and Hamilton awards
Students who are members of the Society for the Study of Evolution or the Society of Systematic Biologists are eligible to apply for the SSE's Hamilton Award or the SSB's Ernst Mayr Award during talk submission until the early registration deadline (April 15, 2020) or until all talk slots fill. Those planning to do so should sign up early for a Regular Contributed Talk, because once these slots fill, it will no longer be possible to apply for these awards. If your application is successful, you will speak in either the Mayr or Hamilton Award Symposium; if not, your talk will be scheduled during the regular concurrent sessions. Applicants will be informed the outcome of the selection process by May 15 at the latest. Talk submission is only available after your main registration has been completed.
