2025 Annual NMD4C Early-Career Awards is Open for Applications
We are excited to announce the opening of our third annual early-career awards competition!
This program provides three awards, celebrating excellence and contribution to the neuromuscular field by early career investigators across both clinical and basic science streams. The three categories included in the competition are Early Career Biomedical Researcher of the Year, Early Career Clinical Researcher of the Year, and Publication of the Year.
Through these awards, we provide a method of recognizing outstanding achievement by early career neuromuscular researchers and clinicians on behalf of the Canadian neuromuscular community. Recipients receive a tangible accolade to bolster their academic CVs in pursuit of future academic appointments and grant applications. This award program is a part of the network’s broader strategy to provide support for Canadian early-career neuromuscular investigators.
The nomination deadline for the 2025 awards cycle is January 15th, 2025, with applicants notified of outcomes in February 2025. We encourage self-nominations, as well as nominations from colleagues! If you or someone you know has made an outstanding achievement to the Canadian neuromuscular community, we encourage you to apply for one of our awards!
