WEBEY Award

The next Western Evolutionary Biology Evolutionist of the Year Prize, or Webby, will be awarded at the meeting. The Webby is awarded by NERE, with UCLA Associate Director Jay Phelan chairing the award committee. The Prize is to be awarded annually to an individual from the west of North America (including western Canada and Mexico) who has contributed significantly to the scientific study of biological evolution. Jay Phelan will be accepting nominations for this award at jay@ucla.edu until November 10th. All individuals nominated for this award must be willing to attend and speak at the WEB meeting in the year that they receive the award. Current Directors of NERE, members of its advisory board, and University of California officials that supervise NERE are not eligible for this award.
