Charles Albert Shull Award

Elizabeth Ainsworth, USDA/ARS; University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign

Created in 1971, the Charles Albert Shull Award recognizes young researchers for outstanding contributions to plant biology in mid-career. Ainsworth is recognized for her impressive scholarship, which she also incorporates into her teaching and service. Her pioneering research on current and potential impacts of global and environmental change on both natural and managed plant ecosystems is widely appreciated. The recipient of the Shull Award delivers a lecture at the following year's ASPB annual meeting, so Ainsworth will speak at Plant Biology 2013 in Providence, RI.

Dennis R. Hoagland Award

Mary Lou Guerinot, Dartmouth College

The Dennis R. Hoagland Award honors Hoagland's contributions and leadership in plant mineral nutrition. Guerinot received this year's award for her seminal contributions to the field of iron nutrition, work that has revolutionized our understanding of the uptake, long-distance transport, and distribution of iron to subcellular compartments, as well as iron deficiency signaling pathways in plants.
