The Antibody Society sponsors competitions each year to recognize and encourage the research activities of promising student/postdoctoral fellows. For the Research Competition, participants submitted a summary of their work on a topic related to antibody research. Winners (1 student and 1 post-doc) were selected based on originality, creativity, scientific merit, clarity of their research and its presentation.
Winners will receive:
- broad exposure of their work,
- a $400 cash prize,
- and the option of a free registration to: 1) Schrödinger’s online course, Introduction to Computational Antibody Engineering; or 2) virtual Antibody Engineering & Therapeutics.
Congratulations to our winners and thanks to everyone who participated!
Watch out for our next Research Competition in 2024!
