2024 AOAC SEA Student Awards

The AOAC SEA's Training of Young Scientists Working Group (ToYS WG) aims to establish programs across Southeast Asia countries to develop, train, encourage, support, and recognize young scientists.

In 2022, we offered three Student Awards and one Student Travel Award to students engaged in the area of food safety and analytical science. In 2023, twelve students from seven countries were selected for the Travel Awards to enter the poster competition at the Annual Conference in Vietnam; three were subsequently awarded the Best Student Poster Award.

This year, we offer the Student Awards again to six best students; results will be announced in mid August.

The Student Awards deadline has been extended to 12 Jul 2024.
