In 2006, the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) will begin sponsoring an excellence in research award that honors veterinarians for the impact their lifetime of research has had on the veterinary or biomedical professions.  The award is designed to stimulate the veterinary research community and honor veterinarians whose efforts have contributed to animal and human health over the years.


Feb. 1 is the deadline for submitting nominations for the first AVMA Lifetime Excellence in Research Award.  The award is open to veterinarians who are currently working in or are retired from clinical practice or an academic, government, private of public institution.  Each year at its spring meeting, the Council on Research will select the recipient after considering nominees on the basis of their lifetime achievements in basic, applied and/or clinical research.


Submit nominations to the AVMA, 1931 N. Meacham Road, Suite 100, Schaumburg, IL 60173-4360. Include a cover letter from the nominator, letters of support from three individuals who are familiar with the nominee’s work, a list of the nominee’s important research achievements and a concise curriculum vitae, including relevant publications.
