Best Student Paper in JSR

At the 102nd Annual Meeting During 2010 in San Diego, CA, the Executive Committee approved a proposal to begin recognizing outstanding student led contributions to the Journal of Shellfish Research.  Upon completion of each volume of JSR, beginning with volume 28 published in 2009, a subset of the JSR Editorial Board will review all papers with students listed as lead authors to identify the best student paper. 

Selection and Evaluation Criteria:

  • lead author must have been a student when the work was completed
  • the work must be the students work, not that of a co-author
  • Quality of science
  • Quality of writing
  • Importance of the work to the field of shellfish research
