Honoring Student Excellence in Anchorage
In an ongoing effort to support and promote the outstanding work of SSA student members, the Society is pleased to present 19 students with a 2024 Student Presentation Award.
The SSA awards program seeks to highlight excellent student presentations (poster or oral) at the SSA Annual Meeting. Each of the recipients listed below were nominated by attendees at the 2024 Annual Meeting in Anchorage, Alaska (29 April-3 May). A three-person judging panel selected them based upon an absolute standard of excellence and criteria developed by the Student Presentation Subcommittee of the Honors Committee.
Additionally, each recipient was required to be registered as a student and be a student member of SSA in good standing.
