Please submit abstract to compete for the 2021 Timpano Award!

The Timpano award is presented each year at the Oklahoma Microscopy Society (OMS) conference to the student with the best oral presentation. My name is Michael Anderson and I was awarded this in 2018. I offered to write these sentences for OMS to advertise this wonderful opportunity because it was a transformative experience for me and my career. Upon receiving the Timpano award in 2018, OMS provided a paid trip to the Microscopy & Microanalysis conference in Baltimore. I was invited to a platform presentation and my abstract was published by the Cambridge Press in Microscopy and Microanalysis (doi.org/10.1017/S1431927618007274). The Timpano award has opened many experiences and opportunities that I otherwise would have miss out on. So, I encourage every with microscopy data/images to prepare an oral presentation and compete for the OMS 2021 Timpano award!
