Sponsored by
Journal of Biomechanics
and Organizers of the ISB Congress
These awards are presented in honor of Professor David Winter and his pioneering contribution to the science and application of biomechanics. There are two DWYI awards, one for the best oral presentation (sponsored by the Journal of Biomechanics, Elsevier Science Ltd) and one for the best poster presentation (Sponsored by the organizers of the previous ISB Congress). The award recipients are offered a certificate, a monetary award of $750 USD and free ISB membership for 2 years.
Requirements: Candidates must be the first author of an abstract submitted to the ISB congress for presentation. They should not have been awarded a PhD by the time of the abstract submission and must have made the major contribution to the research presented in the abstract. If selected for the final round, the candidate must personally present the paper (whether oral or poster) at the ISB-congress. The abstracts for this competition are solicited with the call for papers of the ISB Congress. Please note: ISB has a policy that an abstract submitted for an ISB conference award is non-identical to an abstract submitted elsewhere.
