Outstanding Young Investigator 2020
​

Picture
The SCSS is pleased to launch this year's competition for the 2020 Dr. Susan Lim Award for Outstanding Young Investigator supported by the Dr. Susan Lim Endowment for Education and Research. This award recognizes the exceptional achievements of an investigator in the early part of their independent career in stem cell research. The award emphasizes the numerous and continued contributions of Singapore-based researchers toward understanding the fundamental biology of stem cells and promoting their potential as powerful tools in disease modeling, drug screening and regenerative medicine.

CRITERIA
  • Nominees must be seven or fewer years out from their first full-time assistant professorship or equivalent position in an academic, industrial or clinical research setting *.
  • Nominees must be SCSS members in good standing.
  • Nominees must be independent investigators conducting original research in basic science or clinical development and translation in the field of stem cell research.
  • Nominees must be supported by two SCSS members in good standing.
  • Nominees must be available to attend the SCSS - JSRM Joint Symposium 2020 to be held virtually on December 9 to 11, 2020.
