SSE Presidents' Award for Outstanding Dissertation Paper in Evolution [1]


As previously announced, the award for an exceptional Ph.D. dissertation paper published in the journal Evolution [2], formerly called the R. A. Fisher Prize, has been renamed. A statement about the history of the name and the reason for its change can now be found on the award webpage [3]. SSE Council continues to work on broader issues concerning diversity and representation in our membership, our grant and prize awardees, and leadership. Learn more on the page for our Diversity Committee [4], which guides these initiatives.
