The Society for Neuroscience will grant two Science Journalism Student Awards.

Each winner will receive guidance from a professional journalist covering the meeting and an orientation to cover the Neuroscience 2017 conference.
Undergraduate and graduate students who are receiving a degree in general journalism must show a serious intent to cover science and medical issues professionally. Recent graduates can also apply.
