FELICIANO B. CALORA AWARD FOR OUTSTANDING ENTOMOLOGIST: CALL FOR NOMINEES!

The Feliciano B. Calora Outstanding Entomologist Award

The Philippine Association of Entomologists, Inc. wishes to continue recognizing its outstanding members in all fields of endeavor and to continue the tradition of excellence in the field of entomology that began more than 100 years ago in its mother institution, the old Department of Entomology, UPLB.

PAE believes that Filipino entomologists will continue to flourish and achieve in a variety of pure and applied, academic and non-academic fields. The lives of pioneering Filipino entomologists demonstrate the variety of exceptional entomological accomplishments; Dean Leopoldo B. Uichanco, the first Filipino entomologist and the Father of Philippine Entomology, established the highest standards for instruction, research, and academic professional life.

PAE believes that one such remarkable example of excellence in non-academic elements of entomology is exemplified in the life of Dr. Feliciano B. Calora, who deserves to be recognized for his efforts.

Other contemporary Filipino entomologists have become role models not only for their service to the PAE, but also for non-academic but equally important and significant aspects of Philippine entomology, such as crop protection and pesticide industries, industrial entomology and other entrepreneurial endeavors, research management, public service and administration.
