Students

 

One of the fundamental goals of the workshop is to develop and maintain SIMS as a premier scientific technique. To achieve this goal, the Workshop organizing committee believes it is essential to attract, encourage and foster the development of newer members of our community. In this spirit, we will provide limited financial support to full-time graduate students studying SIMS. In order to be considered, students must submit an abstract for presentation and a letter of support from their research advisor. Some student award recipients may be selected for oral presentations in a special student award session.

A full time student who wishes to be considered for a student stipend award  must submit three copies each of an abstract for presentation and letter of support from the student's research advisor. The letter must state that you are a full time graduate student in his/her research group.

The deadline for receipt is April 6, 2007. Preparation of your Abstract is as follows:

  • Abstracts are to be typed on 8.5"x11" paper.
  • Abstracts can be one to three pages total in length. This includes figures and references. 
  • The title, student's name and affiliation is to be centered at the top of the first page, followed by text and figures.
  • A 1" margin at the top of each page, and a 1" margin on the left, right and bottom of each page is required.
  • A letter of support from the student's research advisor must be on top of the submission and must provide contact information for the research advisor and the student.
  • The letter must state that you are a full-time graduate student in his/her research group and be placed on top of the package.
  • Three copies of the Abstract are to be submitted for SIMS Workshop Committee review and acceptance.
  • Mail your completed package to the Conference Administrative Office:
