The Daniel Morton and Laura Dill Morton Scholarship was established in 2016 and revised in 2025 to provide two annual awards of $7,500 to outstanding students or trainees. The first award recognizes commitment to toxicologic pathology, while the second award honors dedication to public health and/or epidemiology.
Students with a DVM or equivalent degree enrolled full-time in a graduate or residency program who demonstrate interest in toxicologic pathology and strong potential for a successful career are encouraged to apply. Applicants must submit a personal statement describing current research, professional goals, and activities related to toxicologic pathology and/or public health/epidemiology, two professional letters of recommendation (including one from their academic advisor), and a Curriculum Vitae (CV).
Applicants will be evaluated based on their demonstrated interest and potential in toxicologic pathology, and in public health and/or epidemiology, letters of recommendations, and CV. Applicants may indicate both Morton Scholarship categories if applicable, but each recipient will be eligible to receive only one award.
Each awardee will receive $7,500. While attendance at the next STP Annual Symposium is not required, awardees present will be recognized during the Awards & Recognition Ceremony. Award acknowledgement will also appear on the STP website and in the annual symposium issue of Toxicologic Pathology.
