CAST Directors' Award
The "CAST Directors' Award," established in 1997, is given for the best poster presentations at the AIChE Annual Meeting.
The First Place award consists of a plaque with citation and an honorarium of $500. There may also be up to three posters
receiving Honorable Mention. The winners are selected by majority vote of CAST Directors, or substitutes selected by the
Directors, who attend the poster session. The results are announced as soon as possible after the meeting and a formal
presentation of the plaque and honorarium for the First Place winner will be made at the CAST Award Dinner to author(s)
attending the next AIChE Annual Meeting.
On behalf of CAST, we are delighted to announce the winner of the twelfth annual CAST Directors' Award for the 2008 AIChE Annual Meeting in Philadelphia.
Please join us in congratulating the winner!
