Postdoc Appreciation Week is September 16-20. 2024. During this week, UAB strives to show our postdocs how important they are to the research community. One way we recognize our outstanding postdocs is through our Postdoc Awards Ceremony. Consider nominating a postdoc in your life for an award.
Self-nominations will not be accepted.
Community Minded Award- This award is for the postdoctoral fellow/trainee who is dedicated to filling the needs of a local, national, or international community. Nominate someone who is making an impact.
Dr. Congeniality Award- This award is for the postdoctoral fellow/trainee who has a disposition so kind and pleasant that their presence brightens the atmosphere of the work environment. Nominate someone who makes you enjoy being at work.
Excellent Peer Award- This award is for the postdoctoral fellow/trainee who habitually extends their talents, patience, and time to help other students or researchers. Nominate someone who has happily trained you, exceeding expectations or obligation.
The Dory Award - This award is for the postdoctoral fellow/trainee who, despite setbacks and obstacles in their project, has kept pushing and persevered until they successfully finished the work. Nominate someone who inspires you to keep up the hard work and “just keep swimming”.
