FUN Faculty Awards

Call for Nominations 2022

Dear FUN Members,

Each year, the Faculty for Undergraduate Neuroscience recognizes outstanding work among its members with our FUN Faculty Awards. These awards celebrate the outstanding efforts of our members in the neuroscience community, and create visibility for our work as an organization in supporting undergraduate neuroscience. Please consider nominating your colleagues for the following five awards:

The Carol Ann Paul Educator of the Year Award is given annually to a regular member or fellow of FUN in recognition of notable efforts related to promoting effective teaching of neuroscience at the undergraduate level, and is based on a nominating letter from a member.

The FUN Service Award is awarded to recognize individuals who have made outstanding efforts towards the continuing development of FUN as an organization.

The FUN Mentor Award is presented to recognize individuals who have made outstanding contributions as mentors for young neuroscientists.

The FUN Award for Fostering Diversity & Inclusivity is presented to recognize individuals who have made extraordinary efforts promoting diversity and inclusivity in undergraduate neuroscience education. Outstanding support of diversity may include the development of programs that substantially enhance the advancement of students and/or faculty from diverse backgrounds, successful and inclusive mentoring of diverse students and/or faculty, or fostering inclusive classroom/laboratory environments for all to succeed in science.

The Career/Lifetime Achievement Award is FUN's highest honor, awarded to recognize individuals who have made outstanding efforts on behalf of undergraduate neuroscience education and research. Outstanding efforts may include singular achievements that have provided wide benefit to the undergraduate neuroscience community, or sustained efforts across years.

A list of all previous award recipients can be found on the FUN website: https://www.funfaculty.org/faculty_awards. Please submit nomination letters to Kurt Illig, Past-President of FUN, via email to krillig at stthomas.edu. The awards committee will begin reviewing nominations on October 15, 2022 and awardees will be recognized at the Annual Meeting.

Best,

-Kurt
