The IATP Charles Capen Trainee Award given by the International Academy of Toxicologic Pathology (IATP) recognizes Dr. Charles Capen and his legacy as a researcher, teacher, and mentor to the pathology and toxicology communities spanning more than four decades. Dr. Capen was recognized worldwide as an exceptional leader in veterinary and biomedical research. He was a highly regarded mentor to numerous graduate students and postdoctoral scientists. 

The Academy supports up to four cash awards per year (up to 750 U.S. dollars per award) to be distributed at each deadline, that shall be used by successful applicant(s) to attend the annual conference of the Society of Toxicologic Pathology (STP) or a comparable meeting of any well established, active society of toxicologic pathology or toxicology [such as but not limited to the British, European, French, Indian, Japanese, Korean, Latin American Societies of Toxicologic Pathology). 

The successful applicant must be a pathology, toxicology or toxicologic pathology trainee. A trainee is defined as an individual working on an academic degree, in a training or residency program, or in a postdoctoral training position and have demonstrated achievements in the field of toxicologic pathology including but not limited to: 
1. Research contributing to public safety as it relates to the adverse health effects of xenobiotics; 
2. Establishing test methods and standards that enhance the field of toxicologic pathology; and/or 
3. Developing new or novel uses of toxicologic pathology in safety research. 

The Society that is hosting the meeting where the award will be given will be responsible for advertising the award, setting the criteria for selection, and establishing deadlines for receiving applications as well as choosing the recipient of the award. Suggested criteria for the selection of the award recipient may be from oral presentations, poster presentations, published papers, statement of career goals, or any combination of these criteria.  

The IATP will prepare a certificate and check for the awardee(s) to be presented to the awardee(s) at the host society’s awards ceremony.  When possible, the certificate and check will be presented by a IATP Fellow attending the meeting.
