This award was established
in the memory of Dr. Luella Kayla Weresub (1919-1979), a well-known
Canadian mycologist who had worked at the Biosystematics Research
Institute of Agriculture Canada since 1957. Dr Weresub was a very
active member of CBA/ABC, serving as a Director from 1971 to 1973.
The award is open to all
undergraduate or graduate students working with fungi. Applications
or nominations for students who published a paper in fungal biology
in the year preceding the CBA/ABC annual meeting should be sent to the chair of the Mycology section.
