Call for Nominations for all EAS Awards including 
the new Young Investigator Award!

The Eastern Analytical Symposium (EAS) invites nominations for an EAS Young Investigator Award. The Award will be presented at the 2016 Eastern Analytical Symposium to be held November 14-16, 2016, in Somerset, NJ. The Award recognizes outstanding contributions to the development of any aspect of analytical chemistry. To qualify for the award, candidates must be within 10 years of receiving their highest degree at the time of the award session, and must have made significant practical contributions to the field of analytical chemistry that have helped advance the state of the art. Weight will be given to candidates who have taken a leadership role at their university, institute, or place of business.  In addition to a dedicated session at the 2016 EAS, an honorarium and travel expenses are attached to the award.
