The SBS Achievement Award

The Society for Biomolecular Sciences supports an award of $5,000 made at least every three years, to recognize outstanding achievements in research, innovation, ground breaking foundation, or seminal contributions that have proven to be broadly applicable to biomolecular screening or pharmaceutical/ agricultural lead discovery. Furthermore, the award seeks to recognize those who have distinguished themselves within the scope of the society's mission. Independence of thought, originality of approach, clarity of vision, and a consistent record of achievement are important criteria. Quality and depth rather than the number of contributions shall be emphasized.
