The SDB Professional Development and Education
Committee has reinvented the
John Doctor
Education Prize (formally a best education
poster award) as a best education video
award. We challenge SDB members to produce
short videos on their approach to teaching
difficult-to-learn developmental biology topics
to an undergraduate, graduate, or lay public
audience. This year's developmental biology
topic theme is "Induction". See guidelines
here.
Submission deadline is
June 6, 2016.
 Developmental
Biology has published a tribute issue to Eric
