2024 NACRW Student Scholarships
The North American Chemical Residue Workshop (NACRW) holds an annual meeting for scientists
particularly interested in trace level analysis of pesticides, veterinary drug residues, and other chemicals in food, animal feed, and environmental samples. The purpose of the meeting is to provide training, develop and improve technical knowledge, facilitate development and distribution of new analysis methods and techniques, and establish networking to promote professional cooperation between scientists of these interests. While the majority of attendees are from North America, important international speakers are always included in the Technical Program, and attendance of scientists from Asia, Europe, South America, Australia, and Africa is increasing annually. The meeting is expected to have approximately 400 attendees representing government, academia, and industries.
We are pleased to announce that once again NACRW will be offering student stipends where undergraduate and graduate students can apply and if chosen will receive a scholarship award and free registration for the NACRW 2024.
