The Society for Neuroscience wants to help two outstanding science journalism students attend the society’s annual meeting — the world’s largest source of emerging news on brain science and health. This year’s meeting will take place in Washington, DC, on Nov. 12–16.

The awards are open to undergraduate and graduate students, as well as to recently graduated students. The awards will include complimentary meeting registration, four nights’ lodging, and $750 to help defray the expenses of attending. Each winner will also be paired with an experienced professional journalist covering the annual meeting.
