Text Box: Denise Gaudreau Award for Excellence in Quaternary Studies
 

 

 

 

Text Box: In memory of Quaternary palynologist Dr. Denise Gaudreau (1952-1992)
This biennial award of $500 was established to support the early career development of women scientists in Quaternary studies.  Female scientists in any field of Quaternary studies within two years prior to completing the Ph.D. (i.e., they have not yet finished their dissertation research) are encouraged to apply.  Membership in AMQUA and citizenship in the United States are not required.  Selection will be based on scientific accomplishments, promise, and demonstration of original thinking.  Emphasis will be placed on the quality and carefulness of the work, rather than solely on quantity.  
Applications should include: 
Curriculum vitae (no page limit)
Summary of research interests, accomplishments, and goals (not to exceed two pages)
Copy of graduate transcripts (signed by the Advisor).  Phtocopies of transcripts will suffice.  For credits shown in transcripts under general titles, such as independent studies or seminars, briefly describe the subject(s) of the seminar or independent study on a separate page.
Name, address, e-mail address, and phone number of two referees to contact after initial committee screening.
Applications for the 2004 Award must be postmarked by January 1, 2004.  The award recipient will be announced in The Quaternary Times and the award will be presented at the AMQUA Biennial Meeting.  The award will cover registration and up to $500 in travel expenses to attend the meeting.   Submit all materials to:  Bonnie Styles, Illinois State Museum, Research & Collections Center, 1011 East Ash St., Springfield, IL 62703; 217-782-7475, fax: 217-785-2857; styles@museum.state.il.us.
