The Endocrine Society has selected five recipients for its Early Investigators Awards.
The Early Investigators Awards were established to assist in the development of early career investigators and to provide greater recognition of their accomplishments in endocrine-related research.
“One of the biggest challenges endocrine fellows and junior faculty face is gaining recognition and obtaining access to the resources they need for professional development,” said Society President E. Dale Abel, M.D., Ph.D. “The Early Investigator Awards are just one of the many ways the Society values and supports our early career professionals and their research to prepare them to lead in their institutions and the field at large.”
The Endocrine Society’s 2019 Early Investigators Award winners are:
Recipients received a monetary award, one-year complimentary membership to the Society, one-year complimentary access to the Society's online journals, public recognition of research accomplishments in various Society platforms, and an invitation to attend the Excellence in Endocrinology event at ENDO 2019 in New Orleans, La.
Additional information on this award and the recipients is located on the Society’s website at https://www.endocrine.org/awards/additional-society-awards/early-investigators-awards.
The new application cycle opens in September 2019.
