Call for Dwornik Judges at the Lunar and Planetary Science Conference

We need more judges! Please assist in the important task of supporting excellence in our younger scientists through judging student presentations at the 48th LPSC, March 20-24, in The Woodlands, Texas. Contact Sharon Wilson Purdy at [email protected] to sign up.

About the Award: The Dwornik Award was started in 1991 with a generous endowment by Dr. Stephen E. Dwornik, who wished to encourage U.S. students to become involved with NASA and planetary science. The Award consists of a plaque and a monetary award given for outstanding student presentations (in both poster and oral categories) or a plaque for honorable mentions (poster and oral) at the annual Lunar and Planetary Science Conference (LPSC) hosted by the Lunar and Planetary Institute (LPI). The awards are managed and judged by the Planetary Geology Division of the Geological Society of America. More information here:
