The Jennifer N. Bourne Prize in Neuronal and Synaptic Structure and Function, funded by Kristen M. Harris, recognizes a scientist for outstanding work that advances our understanding of synapses in neural circuits and connectomics at the nanometer scale. Awardees must be early-career tenure-track neuroscientists or non-tenure track research scientists at any stage of their career.
The prize may be awarded for discoveries made through visualization, reconstruction, measurement, and theoretical modeling of synaptic components that predict synapse efficacy in circuits. These may include new understanding of the roles of synaptic subcellular structures (e.g., ribosomes, mitochondria, smooth endoplasmic reticulum, vesicles, cell adhesions, etc.), perisynaptic glia, and other subcellular structures that support synapse function. In addition, major advances in relevant technologies involving sample preservation, imaging, reconstruction, and data storage and dissemination will be considered.
Recipients receive a $5,000 prize and complimentary registration, transportation (economy air or ground), and two nights hotel accommodations for the SfN annual meeting. The prize is presented at the SfN annual meeting.
