SLB award programs are open to the scientific community and applications are encouraged from all eligible candidates. The Society strives to be inclusive and welcoming. The Awards Committee reviews award applications annually to ensure the highest quality science and equitable meritorious recognition is provided. SLB promotes society involvement, innovation, and access to leadership opportunities by aiming for the greatest participation from its membership. Engagement across socioeconomic backgrounds and identity groups (including age, race/ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability, nationality, and religion) and professional levels is highly encouraged.
