TRELOAR PRIZE
The Treloar Prize is awarded for outstanding oral and
poster presentations by young polymer scientists at
National or International Polymer Division Meetings. The
Prize is named in honour of the late Dr Edward (Ted)
Treloar who was an enthusiastic supporter of young
polymer scientists in Australia.
Two prizes are normally awarded, the Treloar Prize (Poster) for the best poster and the Treloar Prize (Oral) for the best oral presentation.
Applicants must be members of the RACI or NZIC and
must be less than 30 years of age or be full time students
at the time of the meeting. Applications for the Treloar
Prize at the 30th APS meeting should be noted at the time
of abstract submission.
