SCB Oceania student awards 2015

SCBO are pleased to announce two student awards – one for the best Oceania student presentation at ICCB 2015, and one for the best student publication in a peer-reviewed journal. Prizes include free registration to SCBO Brisbane 2016!

To be considered for the student presentation award, e-mail your ICCB presentation title and abstract to Vanessa by June 30th. To be eligible, you must be a student member of SCBO Oceania and have a presentation (oral, speed or poster) accepted for the ICCB program. Presentations will be judged by board members attending the conference, and the winner(s) will be announced after the conference has finished.

To be considered for the student paper award, e-mail a pdf of your paper and proof of your student status (e.g. a photo / scan of your student ID) to Rebecca by June 30th. To be eligible, papers must be first-authored by a student member of SCB Oceania, with a publication data any time during 2014 or in the first quarter (Jan-April) 2015. Papers will be judged on their scientific merit, clarity, innovativeness, and relevance to conservation and management. Winner(s) will be announced at the SCBO AGM on August 4th in Montpellier.

Good luck!
