Description

The Giles F. Filley Memorial Award for Excellence in Respiratory Physiology and Medicine recognizes an individual demonstrating outstanding promise based on their research program in respiratory physiology and medicine. The award promotes physiological contributions to the national research community, just as Giles F. Filley did through his membership in APS. Because of Filley's long association with the University of Colorado, preference is given to individuals affiliated with the institution. The awardee must attend the American Physiology Summit. The award does not include any indirect cost reimbursement. This award is contingent upon funding and cannot be deferred to future years. Applicants must be an APS member for a minimum of two consecutive years. They must be working within the US. Applicants must be an investigator who holds an academic rank no higher than assistant professor or equivalent. The application package includes a description of current and future research programs; justification for how and why the research program meets the intent of the award; NIH-style biosketch (National Institutes of Health or National Science Foundation format); list of current and pending support or grants not listed in biosketch; a letter of support from the applicant's department chair, administrator or mentor; and letters of support discussing the impact of the research program on the field of respiration and medicine. Please visit the award's website or contact the American Physiological Society for more information.
