Sleep Research Society – Outstanding Early Investigator Award
This award recognizes an outstanding research effort by an early-stage investigator in the field of sleep or circadian research. The basis for evaluation of a candidate is a single, peer-reviewed publication reporting original research (meta-analyses and systematic reviews that make original contributions are eligible, but narrative reviews are not), supported by a senior investigator’s letter of recommendation that must address specific elements described below. The candidate must be the first author; and the article must be published or accepted for publication between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2025.
The award consists of a plaque and an honorarium to be applied toward registration to attend SLEEP 2026, the Annual Meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies. The plaque will be presented to you at SLEEP 2026 during the SRS Club Hypnos Reception.
