FOUNDERS AWARD
History
The Organizing Committee of the 32nd Annual Conference on Bioassay, Analytical, and Environmental Radiochemistry began the tradition by presenting three awards for meritorious service to the Bioassay Conference. The Organizing Committees of several subsequent Annual Conferences carried on this tradition, which is not necessarily an annual event.
The 65th Annual Radiobioassay and Radiochemical Measurements Conference is a continuation of an informal conference that has a long history.
The Award
The award has taken the form of either a parchment, which was also signed by the attendees or a wall plaque. The text of the award:
Whereas, the participants in this conference pursue professional excellence and soulful cogitation,
Whereas, topics of debate at this conference are at the forefront of scientific knowledge, Whereas, this conference is blessed with independent existence, and is dedicated to the preservation of free creativity and open exchange of intelligence, and
Whereas, these publications of acclaim are the sole documents issued by this conference for public perlustration,
Be It Known that all honors, rights, privileges, and praises which pertain to this letter of recognition are presented to
(Name of Individual)
by Conference colleagues in sincere felicitation and appreciation for inspirational leadership and meritorious scientific contributions at the Radiobioassay and Radiochemical Measurements Conference.
